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:
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:
We disabled the test at some point but it should work now without any problems.
Modifications:
Remove @Ignore from test.
Result:
Verify shading of netty-tcnative on CI.
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:
Temporary disable test that wwas introduced as part of f60d08fd32 as it sometimes fail on the CI. We need to figure out why it fails there (can not reproduce so far even on the CI after ssh into it).
Modifications:
Ignore test.
Result:
More stable builds until we figure out the flackyness.
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.
