ErrorAwareBackoffStrategy (Camunda Platform Javadocs 7.17.16-ee)

All Superinterfaces:

BackoffStrategy

All Known Implementing Classes:

ExponentialErrorBackoffStrategy
```
public interface ErrorAwareBackoffStrategy
extends BackoffStrategy
```
Provides a way to define a back off between fetch and lock requests.
Note: Since an implementation of this interface may be executed by multiple threads, it is recommended to implement the custom backoff strategy in a thread-safe manner.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods Default Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`long`	`calculateBackoffTime()`	Calculates the back off time and is invoked after `reconfigure(List, Exception)`.
`default void`	`reconfigure(java.util.List<ExternalTask> externalTasks)`	This is to provide compatibility with existing BackoffStrategy configurations.
`void`	`reconfigure(java.util.List<ExternalTask> externalTasks, java.lang.Exception e)`	Reconfigures the back off strategy based on the fetched external tasks and any error that might have occurred.

- Method Detail
  - reconfigure
```
default void reconfigure(java.util.List<ExternalTask> externalTasks)
```
    This is to provide compatibility with existing BackoffStrategy configurations. Do not override. Implementations of ErrorAwareBackoffStrategy should override reconfigure(List, Exception) instead.
    
    Specified by:
    
    reconfigure in interface BackoffStrategy
    
    Parameters:
    
    externalTasks - which have been fetched
  - reconfigure
```
void reconfigure(java.util.List<ExternalTask> externalTasks,
                 java.lang.Exception e)
```
    Reconfigures the back off strategy based on the fetched external tasks and any error that might have occurred. It is invoked before calculateBackoffTime().
    The implementation might count the amount of invocations and realize a strategy reset.
    
    Parameters:
    
    externalTasks - which have been fetched
  - calculateBackoffTime
```
long calculateBackoffTime()
```
    Calculates the back off time and is invoked after reconfigure(List, Exception).
    
    Specified by:
    
    calculateBackoffTime in interface BackoffStrategy
    
    Returns:
    
    the back off time between fetch and lock requests in milliseconds
