Motivation: - The decoded name should always end with a dot (.), but we currently strip it, which is incorrect. - (O) 0 -> "." - (X) 0 -> "" - (O) 5 netty 2 io 0 -> "netty.io." - (X) 5 netty 2 io 0 -> "netty.io" - The encoded name should end with a null-label, which is a label whose length is 0, but we currently append an extra NUL, causing FORMERR(1) on a strict DNS server: - (O) . -> 0 - (X) . -> 0 0 - (O) netty.io. -> 5 netty 2 io 0 - (X) netty.io. -> 5 netty 2 io 0 0 Modifications: - Make sure to append '.' when decoding a name. - Improve index checks so that the decoder can raise CorruptFrameException instead of IIOBE - Do not encode extra NUL - Add more tests Result: Robustness and correctness

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.
