Sangjin Lee commented on GERONIMO-3617:
---------------------------------------

The number of retries would probably be a parameter on the AsyncHttpClient 
instance itself, as it pertains more to the client app than individual 
requests.  The default should be 0 (no retries).

The natural place where this would be attempted I think is 
AsyncHttpClient.FutureListener.  FutureListener is the listener on the connect 
future.  There one can deal with successful connections as well as failures.

One could maintain the retry count on the FutureListener, and call connect() 
until the retry count is exhausted.  The FutureListener object could (and 
probably should) be reused for subsequent retry attempts to keep track of the 
count.

> AsyncHttpClient should support retries on connection failures

> AsyncHttpClient should provide a way to support retries if initial connection 
> attempts fail.  There should be a configuration where connection retries are 
> enabled and also the maximum number of attempts is specified.  If these are 
> set, connection attempts should be retried.
