Motivation: HttpContentDecoder had the following issues: - For chunked content, the decoder set invalid "Content-Length" header with length of the first decoded chunk. - Decoding of FullHttpRequests put both the original conent and decoded content into output. As result, using HttpObjectAggregator before the decoder lead to errors. - Requests with "Expect: 100-continue" header were not acknowleged: the decoder didn't pass the header message down the handler's chain until content is received. If client expected "100 Continue" response, deadlock happened. Modification: - Invalid "Content-Length" header is removed; handlers down the chain can either rely on LastHttpContent message or ask HttpObjectAggregator to add the header. - FullHttpRequest is split into HttpRequest and HttpContent (decoded) parts. - Header (HttpRequest) part of request is sent down the chain as soon as it's received. Result: The issues are fixed, unittest is added. |

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.
