- UniqueKey removes the duplication between ChannelOption and
AttributeKey
- UniqueName provides common name collision check for AttributeKey,
ChannelOption, and Signal.
- Replaced ReplayError with Signal
- Replaced FrameDecoder and OneToOne(Encoder|Decoder) with:
- (Stream|Message)To(String|Message)(Encoder|Decoder)
- Moved the classes in 'codec.frame' up to 'codec'
- Fixed some bugs found while running unit tests
- It does not build a new Channel but just helps bootstrapping it.
- Added shutdown() method for simpler deinitialization
- ServerChannelBootstrap has shorter method names for the parent channel
- Added ChannelInitializer which is supposed to be used with the
builders
- Echo examples use ChannelBuilder and ServerChannelBuilder now
- Replace ChannelFuture.rethrowIfFailed() with sync*()
- Bug fixes
- AbstractChannel keeps the expected number of written bytes so that
the ChannelFuture of a flush() operation is notified on right timing.
- Added ChannelBufferHolder.size() to make this possible
- Added AbstractChannel.isCompatible() so that only compatible EventLoop
is accepted by a channel on registration
- Added ChannelOption to make channel options type-safe
- Moved writeSpinCount property to ChannelConfig and removed Nio*Config
- Miscellaneous cleanup
introducing
ChannelOption
- SingleThreadEventLoop now implements ScheduledExecutorService
- Scheduled tasks are automatically fetched into taskQueue by
pollTask() and takeTask()
- Removed MapBackedSet because Java 6 provides it
- Added ChannelBufferHolders.(inbound|outbound)BypassBuffer()
- The holder returned by these methods returns the next handler's
buffer. When a handler's new(Inbound|Outbound)Buffer returns
a bypass holder, your inboundBufferUpdated() and flush()
implementation should check if the buffer is a bypass and should not
modify the content of the buffer.
- Channel(Inbound|Outbound)?HandlerAdapter is now abstract.
- A user has to specify the exact inbound/outbound buffer type
- It's because there's no way to determine the best buffer type
- Implemented LoggingHandler using the new API.
- It doesn't dump received or sent messages yet.
- Fixed a bug where DefaultUnsafe.close() does not trigger deregister()
- Fixed a bug where NioSocketChannel.isActive() does not return false
when closed
- Made sure unnecessary interestOps are not OR'd
- Fixed a bug where DefaultChannelFuture.rethrowIfFailed() returns
silently if the future is not done yet - there's no ways to tell
the differences between failure and incompleteness.
- Optimized AbstractChannelBuffer.discardReadBytes()
- Split ChannelHandlerInvoker into ChannelInboundInvoker and
ChannelOutboundInvoker
- Channel implements ChannelOutboundInvoker
- ChannelOutboundInvoker.nextOut() is now out()
- ChannelOutboundHandlerContext.out() is now prevOut()
- Added the outbound operations without future
parameter to ChannelOutboundInvoker for user convenience
- All async operations which requires a ChannelFuture as a parameter
now returns ChannelFuture for user convenience
- Added ChannelFutureFactory.newVoidFuture() to allow a user specify
a dummy future that is of no use
- I'm unsure if it is actually a good idea to introduce it. It might
go away later.
- Made the contract of AbstractChannel.doXXX() much simpler and moved
all common code up to AbstractChannel.DefaultUnsafe
- Added Channel.isOpen()
- Fixed a bug where MultithreadEventLoop always shut down its child
event loops on construction
- Maybe more changes I don't remember :-)
- Remove large portion of code thanks to the new API
- SocketChannel implementations are instantiated without factories
- Retrofit the existing code with the new API
- Remove the classes and properties that are not necessary anymore
- Remove SingleThreadEventLoop.newRegistrationTask() and let
Channel.Unsafe handle registration by itself
- Channel.Unsafe.localAddress() and remoteAddress()
- JdkChannel is replaced by Channel.Unsafe.
- ChannelPipelineFactory will be replaced with sometime else when I
refactory the bootstrap package
- FileRegion is going away. A user can deregister a channel and perform
such operations by him/herself. If this turns out to be too
difficult, I'll introduce a new 'sendfile' operation to the outbound
handler.
- Channel now creates a ChannelPipeline by itself
I find no reason to allow a user to use one's own pipeline
implementation since I saw nobody does except for the cases where a
user wants to add a user attribute to a channel, which is now covered
by AttributeMap.
- Removed ChannelEvent and its subtypes because they are replaced by
direct method invocation.
- Replaced ChannelSink with Channel.unsafe()
- Various getter renaming (e.g. Channel.getId() -> Channel.id())
- Added ChannelHandlerInvoker interface
- Implemented AbstractChannel and AbstractServerChannel
- Some other changes I don't remember
- Add EventLoopException to wrap the exceptions while an event loop does
something
- Make EventLoop.register() return EventLoop so that the caller knows
the actual EventLoop that will handle the Channel even if the caller
called register() from MultithreadEventLoop
- Rename ChannelReader to ChannelInboundHandler
- Rename ChannelWriter to ChannelOutboundHandler
- Introduce ChannelBufferHolder instead of adding the common super type
of message buffers and byte buffers
- This is more type-safe and natural.
- Remove the notification methods for buffer closure (might add back
later when revisiting half-closed connection support)
