Motivation:
In many places Netty uses Unpooled.buffer(0) while should use EMPTY_BUFFER. We can't change this due to back compatibility in the constructors but can use Unpooled.EMPTY_BUFFER in some cases to ensure we not allocate at all. In others we can directly use the allocator either from the Channel / ChannelHandlerContext or the request / response.
Modification:
- Use Unpooled.EMPTY_BUFFER where possible
- Use allocator where possible
Result:
Fixes#9345 for websockets and http package
Motivation:
"Connection: close" header should be specified each time we're going
to close an underlying TCP connection when sending HTTP/1.1 reply.
Modifications:
Introduces changes made in #8914 for the following examples:
* WebSocket index page and WebSocket server handler
* HelloWorld server
* SPDY server handler
* HTTP/1.1 server handler from HTTP/2 HelloWorld example
* HTTP/1.1 server handler from tiles example
Result:
Keep-Alive connections management conforms with RFCs.
Motivation:
We can just use Objects.requireNonNull(...) as a replacement for ObjectUtil.checkNotNull(....)
Modifications:
- Use Objects.requireNonNull(...)
Result:
Less code to maintain.
Motivation:
In our http1 hello world example we only flush on channelReadComplete(...) to make better use of gathering writes. We should do the same in http2.
Modifications:
Only flush in channelReadComplete(...)
Result:
Better performance and more consistent examples.
Motivation:
There currently exists http.HttpUtil, http2.HttpUtil, and http.HttpHeaderUtil. Having 2 HttpUtil methods can be confusing and the utilty methods in the http package could be consolidated.
Modifications:
- Rename http2.HttpUtil to http2.HttpConversionUtil
- Move http.HttpHeaderUtil methods into http.HttpUtil
Result:
Consolidated utilities whose names don't overlap.
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/4120
Motivation:
The HTTP/2 hello world example server should be expecting a FullHttpRequest when falling back to HTTP/1.x mode.
Modifications:
- HelloWorldHttp1Handler should process FullHttpRequestObjects
- Http2ServerInitializer should insert an HttpObjectAggregator into the pipeline if no upgrade was attempted
Result:
Responses from the HelloWorldHttp1Handler should only come after full HTTP requests are received.
Motivation:
Adding an example that showcases Netty’s HTTP/2 codec and that is
slightly more complex than the existing hello-world example. It is
based on the Gopher tiles example available here:
https://http2.golang.org/gophertiles?latency=0
Modifications:
Moved current http2 example to http2/helloworld.
Added http2 tiles example under http2/tiles.
Result:
A Netty tiles example is available.
