I have a solution that sort of works but I am not sure that is the best way of
accomplishing this. Hoping this to be a simple work around until the issue 356
is resolved. Not very clean and would like any other suggestions if possible:
A Custom Engine:
public class CustomEngine extends com.noelios.restlet.Engine {
public CustomEngine() {
super();
}
/**
* If the Helper is an instance of HttpClientHelper, then override
* to provide our custom helper. Otherwise, return the constructed helper.
*
* @return a Helper
*/
@Override public Helper createHelper(Client client) {
Helper helper = super.createHelper(client);
if (helper instanceof HttpClientHelper) {
// override to provide Custom Helper
return new ExtendedHttpClientHelper(client);
}
return helper;
}
}
// A Custom Helper
public class ExtendedHttpClientHelper extends HttpClientHelper {
public ExtendedHttpClientHelper(Client client) {
super(client);
}
/**
* Populate Created Request with CustomRetryHandler
*/
@Override public HttpClientCall create(Request request) {
HttpMethodCall httpMethodCall = (HttpMethodCall) super.create(request);
httpMethodCall.getHttpMethod().getParams().setParameter(HttpMethodParams.RETRY_HANDLER,
new CustomRetryHandler());
return httpMethodCall;
}
}
public class CustomRetryHandler implements HttpMethodRetryHandler {
private int retryCount;
private static int MAX_TRIES = 2;
public boolean retryMethod(HttpMethod arg0, IOException arg1, int arg2) {
if (retryCount < MAX_TRIES) {
retryCount++;
return true;
}
return false;
}
}
An then in my code, I setup the custom engine using:
org.restlet.util.Engine.setInstance(new CustomEngine());
Any suggestions for Betterment would be greately appreciated.
