Motivation:
Http2ConnectionHandler#close(..) always runs the GOAWAY and graceful close
logic. This coupling means that a user would have to override
Http2ConnectionHandler#close(..) to modify the behavior, and the
Http2FrameCodec and Http2MultiplexCodec are not extendable so you cannot
override at this layer. Ideally we can totally decouple the close(..) of the
transport and the GOAWAY graceful closure process completely, but to preserve
backwards compatibility we can add an opt-out option to decouple where the
application is responsible for sending a GOAWAY with error code equal to
NO_ERROR as described in https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7540#section-6.8 in
order to initiate graceful close.
Modifications:
- Http2ConnectionHandler supports an additional boolean constructor argument to
opt out of close(..) going through the graceful close path.
- Http2FrameCodecBuilder and Http2MultiplexCodec expose
gracefulShutdownTimeoutMillis but do not hook them up properly. Since these
are already exposed we should hook them up and make sure the timeout is applied
properly.
- Http2ConnectionHandler's goAway(..) method from Http2LifecycleManager should
initiate the graceful closure process after writing a GOAWAY frame if the error
code is NO_ERROR. This means that writing a Http2GoAwayFrame from
Http2FrameCodec will initiate graceful close.
Result:
Http2ConnectionHandler#close(..) can now be decoupled from the graceful close
process, and immediately close the underlying transport if desired.
Motivation:
Depending on the use case it may make sense to increase or decrease the initial size of the buffer used during the HPACK huffman decode process. This is currently not exposed through the AbstractHttp2ConnectionHandlerBuilder.
Modifications:
- Add a method to AbstractHttp2ConnectionHandlerBuilder which allows the initial size of the buffer used during the HPACK huffman decode prcoess to be configured.
Result:
AbstractHttp2ConnectionHandlerBuilder provides more control of codec-http2 knobs.
Motivation:
A previous commit added methods to AbstractHttp2ConnectionHandlerBuilder but forgot to expose them in Http2ConnectionHandlerBuilder.
Modifications:
- expose the new methods in Http2ConnectionHandlerBuilder
Result:
Http2ConnectionHandlerBuilder supports the new configuration options.
Motivation:
Some codecs should be considered unstable as these are relative new. For this purpose we should introduce an annotation which these codecs should us to be marked as unstable in terms of API.
Modifications:
- Add UnstableApi annotation and use it on codecs that are not stable
- Move http2.hpack to http2.internal.hpack as it is internal.
Result:
Better document unstable APIs.

Motivation:
- A user might want to extend Http2ConnectionHandler and define his/her
own static inner Builder class that extends
Http2ConnectionHandler.BuilderBase. This introduces potential
confusion because there's already Http2ConnectionHandler.Builder. Your
IDE will warn about this name duplication as well.
- BuilderBase exposes all setters with public modifier. A user's Builder
might not want to expose them to enforce it to certain configuration.
There's no way to hide them because it's public already and they are
final.
- BuilderBase.build(Http2ConnectionDecoder, Http2ConnectionEncoder)
ignores most properties exposed by BuilderBase, such as
validateHeaders, frameLogger and encoderEnforceMaxConcurrentStreams.
If any build() method ignores the properties exposed by the builder,
there's something wrong.
- A user's Builder that extends BuilderBase might want to require more
parameters in build(). There's no way to do that cleanly because
build() is public and final already.
Modifications:
- Make BuilderBase and Builder top-level so that there's no duplicate
name issue anymore.
- Add AbstractHttp2ConnectionHandlerBuilder
- Add Http2ConnectionHandlerBuilder
- Add HttpToHttp2ConnectionHandlerBuilder
- Make all builder methods in AbstractHttp2ConnectionHandlerBuilder
protected so that a subclass can choose which methods to expose
- Provide only a single build() method
- Add connection() and codec() so that a user can still specify
Http2Connection or Http2Connection(En|De)coder explicitly
- Implement proper state validation mechanism so that it is prevented
to invoke conflicting setters
Result:
Less confusing yet flexible builder API
