    Modifier and Type
    Method
    Description
    long
    Return the time in milliseconds to wait to the next retry.
    boolean
    Check if we have exceeded our time deadline to retry.
    long
    Return the elapsed between the last time to deadlineExceeded() and the last call to start(long).
    void
    Inform this context object that a retry without applying backoff will be performed.
    int
    Number of retries performed.
    void
    start(long timeOfDeadlineMillis)
    Start tracking time to execute a backoff retry strategy using this context object.
    long
    Absolute point in time when the last call to startMillis() was invoked.
    long
    Returns the absolute epoch time in milliseconds for the deadline.
  • Method Details

    • start

      void start(long timeOfDeadlineMillis)
      Start tracking time to execute a backoff retry strategy using this context object. A deadline is defined when this method is called.
      Parameters:
      timeOfDeadlineMillis - absolute time as milliseconds from the epoch to the deadline.
    • retryCount

      int retryCount()
      Number of retries performed. Useful for clients that want to log a retry summary after deadline exceeded.
      Returns:
      number of retries performed.
    • startMillis

      long startMillis()
      Absolute point in time when the last call to startMillis() was invoked.
      Returns:
      a milliseconds from the epoch timestamp.
    • deadlineExceeded

      boolean deadlineExceeded()
      Check if we have exceeded our time deadline to retry.
      Returns:
      true if the retry deadline has been exceeded, false otherwise.
    • noBackoff

      void noBackoff()
      Inform this context object that a retry without applying backoff will be performed.

      If the caller has some criteria to decide to perform retries in some cases without applying a backoff (eg, if a failure due to authentication requires to renew credentials, which makes sense to be done right away since we understand the reason for the failure), the calling this function lets this object keep the right context for the number of retries performed.

    • backoffMillis

      long backoffMillis()
      Return the time in milliseconds to wait to the next retry. It is assumed the caller will perform a retry after performing this way in some way, eg, calling Thread.sleep(long).
      Returns:
      time in milliseconds to wait until the next retry.
    • elapsedMillis

      long elapsedMillis()
      Return the elapsed between the last time to deadlineExceeded() and the last call to start(long).
      Returns:
      elapsed time in milliseconds.
    • timeOfDeadlineMillis

      long timeOfDeadlineMillis()
      Returns the absolute epoch time in milliseconds for the deadline. Note this method only returns a valid deadline if start has already been called on this Context.
      Returns:
      epoch time of deadline in milliseconds.
