exception - Java: How would I write a try-catch-repeat block?

Question

I am aware of a counter approach to do this. I was wondering if there is a nice and compact way to do this.

Answer 1

Legend - your answer could be improved upon; because if you fail numTries times, you swallow the exception. Much better:

while (true) {
  try {
    //
    break;
  } catch (Exception e ) {
    if (--numTries == 0) throw e;
  }
}
