Delay (AWS CloudFormation RPDK Java Plugin 1.0.3 API)

All Known Implementing Classes:

Blended, Constant, Exponential, MultipleOf, ShiftByMultipleOf
```
public interface Delay
```
This interface defines the Delay that you needed between invocations of a specific call chain. Provides a simple interface to define different types of delay implementations like Constant, Exponential. Constant, provides the Constant.nextDelay(int) that waves constantly for the next attempt. When it exceeds Constant#timeout it return Duration.ZERO to indicate end of delay. Exponential, provide exponential values between [Exponential#minDelay, Exponential#timeout

- Method Detail
  - nextDelay
```
Duration nextDelay(int attempt)
```
    Returns the new delay amount to stabilize as defined by Duration time. This returns -1 to indicate that we are done with delays from this instance Different implementations can return different values
    
    Parameters:
    
    attempt - , starts with 1
    
    Returns:
    
    the next amount to wait for or Duration.ZERO to indicate delay is complete
