/**
 * Interface which handles abnormal HTTP responses (in other words not 2XX).
 *
 * For example, this might be used to refresh an OAuth 2 token:
 *
 * 
 * public static class RefreshTokenHandler implements HttpUnsuccessfulResponseHandler {
 * public boolean handleResponse(
 * HttpRequest request, HttpResponse response, boolean retrySupported) throws IOException {
 * if (response.getStatusCode() == HttpStatusCodes.STATUS_CODE_UNAUTHORIZED) {
 * refreshToken();
 * }
 * return false;
 * }
 * }
 * 
 *
 * Sample usage with a request factory:
 *
 * 
 * public static HttpRequestFactory createRequestFactory(HttpTransport transport) {
 * final RefreshTokenHandler handler = new RefreshTokenHandler();
 * return transport.createRequestFactory(new HttpRequestInitializer() {
 * public void initialize(HttpRequest request) {
 * request.setUnsuccessfulResponseHandler(handler);
 * }
 * });
 * }
 * 
 *
 * More complex usage example:
 *
 * 
 * public static HttpRequestFactory createRequestFactory2(HttpTransport transport) {
 * final RefreshTokenHandler handler = new RefreshTokenHandler();
 * return transport.createRequestFactory(new HttpRequestInitializer() {
 * public void initialize(HttpRequest request) {
 * request.setUnsuccessfulResponseHandler(new HttpUnsuccessfulResponseHandler() {
 * public boolean handleResponse(
 * HttpRequest request, HttpResponse response, boolean retrySupported)
 * throws IOException {
 * return handler.handleResponse(request, response, retrySupported);
 * }
 * });
 * }
 * });
 * }

  /**
   * Handler that will be invoked when an abnormal response is received. There are a few simple
   * rules that one must follow:
   *
   * 
   *   If you modify the request object or modify its execute interceptors in a way that should
   *       resolve the error, you must return true to issue a retry.
   *   
Do not read from the content stream, this will prevent the eventual end user from having
   *       access to it.
   * 
   *
   * @param request Request object that can be read from for context or modified before retry
   * @param response Response to process
   * @param supportsRetry Whether there will actually be a retry if this handler return {@code
   *     true}. Some handlers may want to have an effect only when there will actually be a retry
   *     after they handle their event (e.g. a handler that implements exponential backoff).
   * @return Whether or not this handler has made a change that will require the request to be
   *     re-sent.
