Invoked after given eventListener failed to handle given event. Implementations have a choice of options for how to continue:

• To ignore this error no special action is required. Processing will continue for this and subsequent events.
• To retry processing the event, implementations can re-invoke EventMessageHandler.handle(EventMessage) on the eventListener once or multiple times.
• To terminate event handling altogether and stop propagating the event to other listeners implementations may throw an exception.

Parameters:

exception - The exception thrown by the given eventListener

event - The event that triggered the exception

eventHandler - The listener that failed to handle given event

Throws:

Exception - To stop further handling of the event
