Class RecoverAnnotationRecoveryHandler<T>

java.lang.Object

org.springframework.retry.annotation.RecoverAnnotationRecoveryHandler<T>

All Implemented Interfaces:

MethodInvocationRecoverer<T>

public class RecoverAnnotationRecoveryHandler<T>
extends Object
implements MethodInvocationRecoverer<T>

A recoverer for method invocations based on the @Recover annotation. A suitable recovery method is one with a Throwable type as the first parameter and the same return type and arguments as the method that failed. The Throwable first argument is optional and if omitted the method is treated as a default (called when there are no other matches). Generally the best matching method is chosen based on the type of the first parameter and the type of the exception being handled. The closest match in the class hierarchy is chosen, so for instance if an IllegalArgumentException is being handled and there is a method whose first argument is RuntimeException, then it will be preferred over a method whose first argument is Throwable.
