Define the interface for controlling how the Bigtable client retries RPC operations.
The C++ client for Bigtable needs to hide partial and temporary failures from the application. However, we need to give the users enough flexibility to control how many attempts are made to reissue operations, how often these attempts are executed, and how to signal that an error has occurred.
The application provides an instance of this class when the Table (or TableAdmin) object is created. This instance serves as a prototype to create new RPCRetryPolicy objects of the same (dynamic) type and with the same initial state.
Functions
clone() const
Return a new copy of this object.
Typically implemented as ```cpp
return std::unique_ptr
[[["Easy to understand","easyToUnderstand","thumb-up"],["Solved my problem","solvedMyProblem","thumb-up"],["Other","otherUp","thumb-up"]],[["Hard to understand","hardToUnderstand","thumb-down"],["Incorrect information or sample code","incorrectInformationOrSampleCode","thumb-down"],["Missing the information/samples I need","missingTheInformationSamplesINeed","thumb-down"],["Other","otherDown","thumb-down"]],["Last updated 2025-03-14 UTC."],[[["This document details the `RPCRetryPolicy` class in the Google Cloud Bigtable C++ client library, which manages how the client handles retries for Remote Procedure Call (RPC) operations."],["The latest version is `2.37.0-rc`, and the document covers versions back to `2.11.0`, with each version having its own dedicated link."],["Users can customize retry behavior by creating and providing an instance of the `RPCRetryPolicy` class when creating `Table` or `TableAdmin` objects."],["Key functions of the `RPCRetryPolicy` include `clone()`, `Setup()`, and `OnFailure()`, which handle creating copies, setting up the call context, and managing failures, respectively."],["Static functions `IsPermanentFailure()` are provided to determine if a failure is permanent and not retryable, and `IsExhausted` checks if the policy has exhausted the retry attempts."]]],[]]
