Motivation:
https in xmlns URIs does not work and will let the maven release plugin fail:
```

Modifications:
Use http for xmlns
Result:
Be able to use maven release plugin
Motivation:
JUnit 5 is the new hotness. It's more expressive, extensible, and composable in many ways, and it's better able to run tests in parallel. But most importantly, it's able to directly run JUnit 4 tests.
This means we can update and start using JUnit 5 without touching any of our existing tests.
I'm also introducing a dependency on assertj-core, which is like hamcrest, but arguably has a nicer and more discoverable API.
Modification:
Add the JUnit 5 and assertj-core dependencies, without converting any tests at time time.
Result:
All our tests are now executed through the JUnit 5 Vintage Engine.
Also, the JUnit 5 test APIs are available, and any JUnit 5 tests that are added from now on will also be executed.
Motivation:
HTTP is a plaintext protocol which means that someone may be able
to eavesdrop the data. To prevent this, HTTPS should be used whenever
possible. However, maintaining using https:// in all URLs may be
difficult. The nohttp tool can help here. The tool scans all the files
in a repository and reports where http:// is used.
Modifications:
- Added nohttp (via checkstyle) into the build process.
- Suppressed findings for the websites
that don't support HTTPS or that are not reachable
Result:
- Prevent using HTTP in the future.
- Encourage users to use HTTPS when they follow the links they found in
the code.
Motivation:
At the moment it is not possible to build netty on a power 8 systems.
Modifications:
- Improve detection of the possibility of using Conscrypt
- Skip testsuite-shading when not on x86_64 as this is the only platform for which we build tcnative atm
- Only include classifier if on x86_64 for tcnative as dependency as this is the only platform for which we build tcnative atm
- Better detect if UDT test can be run
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/9479
Motivation:
Netty is very widely used which can lead to a lot of pain when we break API / ABI. We should make use japicmp-maven-plugin during the build to verify we do not introduce breakage by mistake.
Modifications:
- Add japicmp-maven-plugin to the build process
- Fix a method signature change in HttpProxyHandler that was flagged as a possible problem.
Result:
Ensure no API/ABI breakage accour between releases.
Motivation:
We missed to include a profile for windows which means that we did not have the correct dependencies setup.
Modifications:
- Add missing profile
- Add assumeFalse(...) to ensure we do only test the native transpot shading on non windows platforms.
- Explicit specify dependency on netty-common
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8489.
Motivation:
2109f14c24 corrected how we run the testsuite with boringssl-static but missed to also adjust the testsuite-shading configuration which lead to test failures.
Modifications:
Correctly compose the native lib name when no classifier is used.
Result:
Testsuite passes again.
* Try to monkey-patch library id when shading is used and we are on MacOS / OSX.
Motivation:
ea4c315b45 did ensure we support using multiple versions of the same shaded native library but the user still needed to run install_name_tool -id on MacOS to ensure the ID is unique.
This is kind of error prone and also means that the shading itself would need to be done on MacOS / OSX.
This is related to https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/7272.
Modifications:
- Monkey patch the shaded native lib on MacOS to ensure the id is unique while unpacking it to the tempory location.
Result:
Easier way of using shaded native libs in netty.
Motivation:
We should support to load multiple shaded versions of the same netty artifact as netty is often used in multiple dependencies.
This is related to https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/7272.
Modifications:
- Use -fvisibility=hidden when compiling and use JNIEXPORT for things we really want to have exported
- Ensure fields are declared as static so these are not exported
- Adjust testsuite-shading to use install_name_tool on MacOS to change the id of the lib. Otherwise the wrong may be used.
Result:
Be able to use multiple shaded versions of the same netty artifact.
Motivation:
d67d639f5f added a test for shading the native transport of netty. We should also test that shading netty-tcnative is possible.
Modifications:
Add test for shading netty-tcnative
Result:
More testing.
Motivation:
It's easy to break the support for shading native libs as shown in https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8090. We should have some testing to ensure all works as expected.
Modification:
Add new testsuite which verifies that shading our native transports work as expected.
Result:
Include test to verify shading of native code.
