Policy policy = null; // Break the circuit after the specified number of exceptions // and keep circuit broken for the specified duration. policy = Policy .Handle<NullReferenceException>() .CircuitBreaker(3, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(30)); try { string connected = policy.Execute(() => repository.GetConnectionString()); } catch (Exception ex) { Console.WriteLine("{0}",ex.Message); } and the
