Release 4.0.0

Improvements to the API

Primary features

• Retryer and RetryerBuilder no longer require a class-level parameter. A given Retryer can now be used with Callables that return any type.
• Retryer can now be used to retry a Runnable

API changes

• Retryer no longer has public constructors: the RetryerBuilder must be used to create them
• Retryer.call no longer throws ExecutionException. If the Callable throws an exception that causes retrying to stop, it is always wrapped in a RetryException before throwing. This includes any unchecked exceptions.
• Retryer.call now propagates InterruptedException. Previously, if the thread was interrupted, it would throw an unchecked Exception and set the interrupted state on the thread.
• Retryer has a new method, void run(Runnable). It works similarly to the call method. However, if a Retryer is built with RetryerBuilder.retryIfResult, then the Predicate will be invoked with a "null" when Retryer.run is used. It would probably be best not to Retryer.run with RetryerBuilder.retryIfResult, but you can also simply insure your Predicate handles a null value.
• Predicates used by RetryerBuilder are now of type java.util.function.Predicate instead of com.google.common.base.Predicate.

Semantic changes

• Retry strategies that attempt to retry on an InterruptedException no longer work: any InterruptedException thrown by a Callable is immediately thrown by the retry method. This is because of the fix for #36.

#22 Stop wrapping exceptions thrown by the retried Callables in ExecutionExceptions
#24 Better handling of InterruptedException in Retryer.call
#27 Attempt.getAttemptNumber can return int instead of long
#29 Clean up the build file
#30 Use Java Predicates
#36 InterruptedException thrown by a Callable is not handled correctly
