Motivation: Subclasses of AbstractHttp2ConnectionHandler have to implement all frame handler methods, many of which can be ignored in many cases. Also there is no easy way to access the connection object. Modifications: Added default implementations for frame handler methods to AbstractHttp2ConnectionHandler, and added an accessor for the connection. Also fixed example test for HTTP/2 with cleartext upgrade. It must have been broken by recent commits. Result: AbstractHttp2ConnectionHandler is more subclass-friendly.

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 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.
