[JIRA] Commented: (JOWS-37) FileBackedHttpResource does not properly read backup file, during initialization, if remote file is unreachable

Brent Putman commented on JOWS-37:
----------------------------------

Changes to ResourceChangeWatcher in r435.

If Resource#exists() throws in the constructor, it now behaves like the run() method: it increments the currentRetryAttempts and then checks to see whether currentRetryAttempts >= maxRetryAttempts only throws out of the constructor if that is true.  We don't need any other flag since the constructor arg retryAttempts implicitly handles influencing the behavior.

I think this closes this issue out.

> The FileBackedHttpResource does not read, and return, the backup file if the remote file can not be read during installation.  This may be desired behavior in some cases but may not be in others.  Probably should have a flag to control this.
