Motivation:
Netty uses own Integer.compare and Long.compare methods. Since Java 7 we can use Java implementation instead.
Modification:
Remove own implementation
Result:
Less code to maintain
Motiviation:
Simplify implementation of compareTo/equals/hashCode for ChannelIds.
Modifications:
We simplfy the hashCode implementation for DefaultChannelId by not
making it random, but making it based on the underlying data. We fix the
compareTo implementation for DefaultChannelId by using lexicographic
comparison of the underlying data array. We fix the compareTo
implementation for CustomChannelId to avoid the possibility of overflow.
Result:
Cleaner code that is easier to maintain.
Motivation:
EmbeddedChannelId#hashCode() and equals() do not behave correctly if an
instance is serialized and then deserialized. Additionally,
EmbeddedChannel does not allow use of any other type of ChannelId, and
EmbeddedChannelId is (mostly) a singleton instance. This creates a
problem for unit tests that construct multiple EmbeddedChannels and
expect each channel to have a unique ID.
Modifications:
EmbeddedChannelId is modified so equals() will return true and
hashCode() will return the same value for any instance of the class.
EmbeddedChannel is modified to allow a ChannelId to be specified when
the channel is constructed. Tests added for both changes.
Result:
EmbeddedChannelId now behaves correctly when deserialized, and
EmbeddedChannels can now have unique IDs.
