Interface SpoiledReferenceStrategizer

All Known Implementing Classes:
GenericSpoiledReferenceStrategizer
public interface SpoiledReferenceStrategizer

Decides which strategy to adopt for a given reference with a bad state. Those can either be deleted (asking the committer to remove them from a target repository), they can be ignored (no action is taken), or graced (give is one chance to recover on a subsequent run).

A "bad" state is any state but NEW, MODIFIED, and UNMODIFIED. These statuses never have to be resolved. A complete list of statuses can be obtained from ProcessingOutcome or a subclass.

In addition to "good" states, it is possible for some states to be temporary and/or to be specific to some collectors, and to never be passed to this class.
