Motivation: The default limit for the maximum amount of bytes that a method will be inlined is 35 bytes. AbstractByteBuf#forEach and AbstractByteBuf#forEachDesc comprise of method calls which are more than this maximum default threshold and may prevent or delay inlining for occuring. The byte code for these methods can be reduced to allow for easier inlining. Here are the current byte code sizes: AbstractByteBuf::forEachByte (24 bytes) AbstractByteBuf::forEachByte(int,int,..) (14 bytes) AbstractByteBuf::forEachByteAsc0 (71 bytes) AbstractByteBuf::forEachByteDesc (24 bytes) AbstractByteBuf::forEachByteDesc(int,int,.) (24 bytes) AbstractByteBuf::forEachByteDesc0 (69 bytes) Modifications: - Reduce the code for each method in the AbstractByteBuf#forEach and AbstractByteBuf#forEachDesc call stack Result: AbstractByteBuf::forEachByte (25 bytes) AbstractByteBuf::forEachByte(int,int,..) (25 bytes) AbstractByteBuf::forEachByteAsc0 (29 bytes) AbstractByteBuf::forEachByteDesc (25 bytes) AbstractByteBuf::forEachByteDesc(int,int,..) (27 bytes) AbstractByteBuf::forEachByteDesc0 (29 bytes)

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.
