Annotation Type BeforeRetry

@Target({METHOD,TYPE})
@Experimental("first attempt at providing before retry actions")
public @interface BeforeRetry

Defines a handler or method that should be called before any retry, but not before the initial attempt. May only be present on elements that are also annotated @Retry.

The before retry action must be fast and non-blocking (i.e., it must not do any IO or long-running computations) and must not throw an exception.

Only one of value() and methodName() can be specified. If both of them are, deployment problem occurs.
