Motivation: Currently, we only test our ZlibEncoders against our ZlibDecoders. It is convenient to write such tests, but it does not necessarily guarantee their correctness. For example, both encoder and decoder might be faulty even if the tests pass. Modifications: Add another test that makes sure that our GZIP encoder generates the GZIP trailer, using the fact that GZIPInputStream raises an EOFException when GZIP trailer is missing. Result: More coverage for GZIP compression

How to build
For the detailed information about building and developing Netty, please visit the developer guide. This page only gives very basic information.
You require the following to build Netty:
- Latest stable Oracle JDK 7
- Latest stable Apache Maven
- If you are on Linux, you need additional development packages installed on your system, because you'll build the native transport.
Note that this is build-time requirement. JDK 5 (for 3.x) or 6 (for 4.0+) is enough to run your Netty-based application.
Branches to look
The 'master' branch is where the development of the latest major version lives on. The development of all other versions takes place in each branch whose name is identical to <majorVersion>.<minorVersion>. For example, the development of 3.9 and 4.0 resides in the branch '3.9' and the branch '4.0' respectively.
