- Use ': ' instead of '(...)' for simpler string concatenation and prettier presentation
- Optimize the overall performance of format*() methods
- All format*() methods are now expected to encode the channel information by themselves so that StringBuilder instances are created less often.
- Use a look-up table for generating per-row prefixes
- Hid formatByteBuf(), formatByteBufHolder(), and formatNonByteBuf() from user because a user can always override format(ctx, eventName, arg). For example, to disable hexdump:
protected void format(ChannelHandlerContext ctx, String eventName, Object arg) {
if (arg instanceof ByteBuf) {
super.format(ctx, eventName, arg.toString());
} else {
super.format(ctx, eventName, arg);
}
}
- Fixes#1808
- Move all methods in ChannelInboundHandler and ChannelOutboundHandler up to ChannelHandler
- Remove ChannelInboundHandler and ChannelOutboundHandler
- Deprecate ChannelInboundHandlerAdapter, ChannelOutboundHandlerAdapter, and ChannelDuplexHandler
- Replace CombinedChannelDuplexHandler with ChannelHandlerAppender
because it's not possible to combine two handlers into one easily now
- Introduce 'Skip' annotation to pass events through efficiently
- Remove all references to the deprecated types and update Javadoc
- Fixes#1905
- Call ctx.flush() only when necessary
- Improve the estimation of application and packet buffer sizes
- decode() method now tries to call unwrap() with as many SSL records as
possible to reduce the number of events triggered
- Proposed fix for #1824
UniqueName and its subtypes do not allow getting the previously registered instance. For example, let's assume that a user is running his/her application in an OSGi container with Netty bundles and his server bundle. Whenever the server bundle is reloaded, the server will try to create a new AttributeKey instance with the same name. However, Netty bundles were not reloaded at all, so AttributeKey will complain that the name is taken already (by the previously loaded bundle.)
To fix this problem:
- Replaced UniqueName with Constant, AbstractConstant, and ConstantPool. Better name and better design.
- Sctp/Udt/RxtxChannelOption is not a ChannelOption anymore. They are just constant providers and ChannelOption is final now. It's because caching anything that's from outside of netty-transport will lead to ClassCastException on reload, because ChannelOption's constant pool will keep all option objects for reuse.
- Signal implements Constant because we can't ensure its uniqueness anymore by relying on the exception raised by UniqueName's constructor.
The old implementation was broken and could lead to pending message never be picked up again until the user either explicit called flush or
resumeTransfer().
Fix for first issue from #1652 on computation of time to wait in AbstractTrafficShapingHandler for Netty 4, using the same formula than in Netty 3 (wrong place for parenthese).
Was:
(bytes * 1000 / limit - interval / 10) * 10;
Becomes:
(bytes * 1000 / limit - interval) / 10 * 10;
- Fix a bug in DefaultProgressivePromise.tryProgress() where the notification is dropped
- Fix a bug in AbstractChannel.calculateMessageSize() where FileRegion is not counted
- HttpStaticFileServer example now uses zero copy file transfer if possible.
