Motivation The current event loop shutdown logic is quite fragile and in the epoll/NIO cases relies on the default 1 second wait/select timeout that applies when there are no scheduled tasks. Without this default timeout the shutdown would hang indefinitely. The timeout only takes effect in this case because queued scheduled tasks are first cancelled in SingleThreadEventExecutor#confirmShutdown(), but I _think_ even this isn't robust, since the main task queue is subsequently serviced which could result in some new scheduled task being queued with much later deadline. It also means shutdowns are unnecessarily delayed by up to 1 second. Modifications - Add/extend unit tests to expose the issue - Adjust SingleThreadEventExecutor shutdown and confirmShutdown methods to explicitly add no-op tasks to the taskQueue so that the subsequent event loop iteration doesn't enter blocking wait (as looks like was originally intended) Results Faster and more robust shutdown of event loops, allows removal of the default wait timeout |

Netty Project
Netty is an asynchronous event-driven network application framework for rapid development of maintainable high performance protocol servers & clients.

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
Development of all 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.
Usage with JDK 9
Netty can be used in modular JDK9 applications as a collection of automatic modules. The module names follow the reverse-DNS style, and are derived from subproject names rather than root packages due to historical reasons. They are listed below:
io.netty.all
io.netty.buffer
io.netty.codec
io.netty.codec.dns
io.netty.codec.haproxy
io.netty.codec.http
io.netty.codec.http2
io.netty.codec.memcache
io.netty.codec.mqtt
io.netty.codec.redis
io.netty.codec.smtp
io.netty.codec.socks
io.netty.codec.stomp
io.netty.codec.xml
io.netty.common
io.netty.handler
io.netty.handler.proxy
io.netty.resolver
io.netty.resolver.dns
io.netty.transport
io.netty.transport.epoll

io.netty.transport.sctp

Automatic modules do not provide any means to declare dependencies, so you need to list each used module separately
in your module-info
file.
