Motivation: When starting with a read-only NIO buffer, wrapping it in a ByteBuf, and then later retrieving a re-wrapped NIO buffer the limit was getting too short. Modifications: Changed ReadOnlyByteBufferBuf.nioBuffer(int,int) to compute the limit in the same manner as the internalNioBuffer method. Result: Round-trip conversion from NIO to ByteBuf to NIO will work reliably.

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
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 major versions takes place in each branch whose name is identical to its major version number. For example, the development of 3.x and 4.x resides in the branch '3' and the branch '4' respectively.
