Get "Retry-After" header in Android

Stephen N.5

I'm working on the error-handling for my new Android app right now and can't seem to figure out where to extract the "Retry-After" header if a 429 error is returned. The javadocs seem to have nothing on this. I'm using the Dropbox Android SDK 1.6.3.

I am using e.error in my catch(DropboxServerException e) block to get the error code. Will the retry-after header be in e.body.error? I would test this myself but I'd like to avoid actually hitting the API call limit just to find the retry-after number.

 

Thoughts?

Unfortunately, the Android Core SDK doesn't currently expose the Retry-After header, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request.
