- UniqueKey removes the duplication between ChannelOption and
AttributeKey
- UniqueName provides common name collision check for AttributeKey,
ChannelOption, and Signal.
- Replaced ReplayError with Signal
- Merged LifeCycleAwareChannelHandler into ChannelHandler
- Replaced ChannelUpstreamHandler and ChannelDownstreamHandler with
ChannelReader and ChannelWriter
- These two new interfaces are much more type-safe than its ancestor.
- Simplified channel state model as described in #68
- Handler creates send/receive buffer.
- Previously, Netty created them, but it led to more memory copies and
inflexibility. I'm going to allow a handler to create a bounded
queue for example.
- It currently uses Queue<T> but I'll define a new interface and make
ChannelBuffer implement it (e.g. Queue<Byte>)
- Introduced AttributeMap which replaces attachments in Channel and
ChannelHandlerContext and ChannelLocal
