In TrafficCounter, a recent change makes the contract of the API (the constructor) wrong and lead to issue with GlobalChannelTrafficCounter where executor must be null. Motivation: TrafficCounter executor argument in constructor might be null, as explained in the API, for some particular cases where no executor are needed (relevant tasks being taken by the caller as in GlobalChannelTrafficCounter). A null pointer exception is raised while it should not since it is legal. Modifications: Remove the 2 null checking for this particular attribute. Note that when null, the attribute is not reached nor used (a null checking condition later on is applied). Result: No more null exception raized while it should not. This shall be made also to 4.0, 4.1 (present) and master. 3.10 is not concerned. |

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 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.
