Motivation:
While building netty-all we should always include all classes for native transports no matter if the native part can be build or not. This was it is easier to test locally with a installed snapshot of netty-all when the code that uses it does enable a specific native transport depending on if the native bits can be loaded or not.
Modifications:
Always include classes of native transports no matter on which platfrom we build. When a release is done we ensure we include the native bits by using the uber-staging profile.
Result:
Easier testing with netty-all snapshots.
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:
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:
The netty-all artifact doesn't have a Automatic-Module-Name defined in the manifest like the rest of the projects do, resulting in requires netty.all.
Modification:
Add Automatic-Module-Name
Result:
Correctly work as java9 module.
Motivation:
Use actual links to new locations of Protobuf repo and documentation to
avoid problems when redirect will not work.
Modification:
Links in comments and all/pom.xml
Result:
Correct links to Protobuf resources
Motivation:
c93e58c453 changed to use _ for the tcnative lib name but missed to also adjust the filtering.
Modifications:
Fix filtering to look for _
Result:
Not include native tcnative lib as expected.
Motivation:
We need to exclude the netty-tcnative classes from the all jar when building it as otherwise there may be classloader issues.
Modifications:
Add io/netty/internal/tcnative to the exclude list.
Result:
Fixes [#6791]
Motivation:
As we now include native code for multiple platforms we need to generate an uber all jar before release it from the staging repository. For this the uber-staging profile can be used. To create a snapshot uber jar the uber-snapshot profile can be used.
Modifications:
- Add uber-staging and uber-snapshot profile
- Correct comment in pom.xml file to show usage.
Result:
Easier to create snapshot and release uber jars.
