Motivation: EventExecutor.iterator() is fixed to return Iterator<EventExecutor> and there's no way to change that as long as we don't extend Iterable. However, a user should have a way to cast the returned set of executors painlessly. Currently, it is only possible with an explicit cast like (Iterator<NioEventLoop>). Modifications: Instead, I added a new method called 'children()' which returns an immutable collection of child executors whose method signature looks like the following: <E extends EventExecutor> Set<E> children(); Result: A user can now do this: Set<NioEventLoop> loops = group.children(); for (NioEventLoop l: loops) { ... } Unfortunately, this is not possible: for (NioEventLoop l: group.children()) { ... } However, it's still a gain that a user doesn't need to down-cast explicitly and to add the '@SuppressWarnings` annotation.
