Are the @Retryable annotation properties cached?

[BEdvin]

I'm using expression by declaring properties of the annotation. My example is given below:

@Retryable(maxAttemptsExpression = "#{@instanceCounter.getCount(#accountNumber)}", backoff = @Backoff(delay = 100, maxDelay = 500))
public MyModel getMyModel(String accountNumber){
......
return myModel;
}

I want, that each time the method getMyModel is called, the bean instanceCounter also should be called.
But there was different behavior than I expected. The bean instanceCounter was called just one time, when the getMyModel method was called first time. Other time when I call the method, the bean instanceCounter is not called.

Seems like the maxAttemptsExpression property was cached after first call. And after that, value of this property is always used from cache.

It's right? There is a way to set dynamic value to this property?

You would need to re-instantiate the bean when the configuration changed. You can do that (for instance) with @RefreshScope from Spring Cloud. Or you could create a custom RetryPolicy and inject that into an interceptor that you create yourself (and reference via the "interceptor" attribute in @Retryable).
