Motivation:
NPN has been superseeded by ALPN
SPDY has been superseeded by HTTP/2 and Chrome has dropped support in 2016
Those protocols are deprecated and most likely no longer used at large.
Modifications:
Remove NPN and SPDY code.
`ApplicationProtocolConfig.Protocol` enum is left with 2 values: NONE and ALPN, as this might be more explicit than a boolean and would be more versatile should a new negotiation protocol appear.
Result:
Removed dead code
Motivation:
Most of the maven modules do not explicitly declare their
dependencies and rely on transitivity, which is not always correct.
Modifications:
For all maven modules, add all of their dependencies to pom.xml
Result:
All of the (essentially non-transitive) depepdencies of the modules are explicitly declared in pom.xml
Motivation:
This transport is unique because it uses Java's blocking IO (java.io / java.net) under the hood. However it is not clear if this transport is actually useful so it should be removed.
Modifications:
- Remove OIO transport and RXTX transport which depend on it.
- Remove Oio*Sctp* implementations
- Remove PerThreadEventLoop* which was only used by OIO transport.
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8510.
Motivation:
The UDT transport was marked as @Deprecated a long time ago as the underlying native library is not really maintained anymore. We should remove it as part of Netty 5.
Modifications:
Remove UDT transport
Result:
Dont try to maintain a transport which uses an unmaintained native lib internally.
Motivation:
Java 11 will be out soon, so we should be able to build (and run tests) netty.
Modifications:
- Add dependency that is needed till Java 11
- Adjust tests so these also pass on Java 11 (SocketChannelImpl.close() behavious a bit differently now).
Result:
Build also works (and tests pass) on Java 11.
