Motivation:
We tried to provide the ability for the user to change the semantics of the threading-model by delegate the invoking of the ChannelHandler to the ChannelHandlerInvoker. Unfortunually this not really worked out quite well and resulted in just more complexity and splitting of code that belongs together. We should remove the ChannelHandlerInvoker again and just do the same as in 4.0
Modifications:
Remove ChannelHandlerInvoker again and replace its usage in Http2MultiplexCodec
Result:
Easier code and less bad abstractions.
Motivation:
Due a regression introduced by e969b6917c we missed to pass the original ChannelPromise to the next ChannelOutboundHandler and so
may never notify the origin ChannelPromise. This is related to #4805.
Modifications:
- Correctly pass the ChannelPromise
- Add unit test.
Result:
Correctly pass the ChannelPromise on deregister(...)
Motivation:
ChannelInboundHandler and ChannelOutboundHandler both can implement exceptionCaught(...) method and so we need to dispatch to both of them.
Modifications:
- Correctly first dispatch exceptionCaught to the ChannelInboundHandler but also make sure the next handler it will be dispatched to will be the ChannelOutboundHandler
- Add removeInboundHandler() and removeOutboundHandler() which allows to remove one of the combined handlers
- Let *Codec extends it and not ChannelHandlerAppender
- Remove ChannelHandlerAppender
Result:
Correctly handle events and also have same behavior as in 4.0
