### setHandler
added in[version 26.1.0](https://developer.android.com/topic/libraries/support-library/revisions)
```
FontRequestEmojiCompatConfig setHandler (Handler handler)
```
Sets the custom handler to be used for initialization. Since font fetch take longer time, the metadata loader will fetch the fonts on the background thread. You can pass your own handler for this background fetching. This handler is also used for retrying.
| Parameters ||

| `handler` | `Handler`: A[Handler](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Handler.html)to be used for initialization. Can be`null`. In case of`null`, the metadata loader creates own[HandlerThread](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/HandlerThread.html)for initialization.
|
| Returns ||
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------|
| [FontRequestEmojiCompatConfig](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/text/emoji/FontRequestEmojiCompatConfig) |
|
### setRetryPolicy
added in[version 26.1.0](https://developer.android.com/topic/libraries/support-library/revisions)
```
FontRequestEmojiCompatConfig setRetryPolicy (FontRequestEmojiCompatConfig.RetryPolicy policy)
```
Sets the retry policy.
| Parameters ||
|----------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `policy` | `FontRequestEmojiCompatConfig.RetryPolicy`: The policy to be used when the font provider is not ready to give the font file. Can be`null`. In case of`null`, the metadata loader never retries.
|
| Returns ||
