Disable auto-retry for job by id

feature
1

I have a jobs and global config for retrying (10 retries)
I want to disable auto-retry for job if it throwed specific exception (see example)

        public void DoJob()
        {
            try
            {
                // Do job
            }
            catch (NotImplementedException ex)
            {
                // Dont't retry job
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                // Log and retry
            }
        }

As a solution to this scenario, i use to exhaust the retries by setting the Job Parameter RetryCount to something that i know isn’t used by my jobs, like 9999, or you could use a bigger number (Int32.MaxValue) if you have jobs with such a high retry attempts, rsrsrs

For that, i’m injecting PerformContext on my job methods (using Dependency Injection), so:

public Task MytestMethod(PerformContext jobContext)
{
    try
    {
        trySomething();
    } catch (IrreoverableExceptionType ex) {
        jobContext.SetJobParameter("RetryCount", 9999);
        notifySomeone(ex);
        throw;
    } catch (OtherExceptions ex) {
        doSomethingElse();
        notifySomeone(ex);
        throw;
    }

don’t know if it’s the best way…
