Motivation: When netty is used with open ssl provider and client authentication the following errors can occur: error:140D9115:SSL routines:ssl_get_prev_session:session id context uninitialized error:140A1175:SSL routines:ssl_bytes_to_cipher_list:inappropriate fallback error:140760FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_CLIENT_HELLO:unknown protocol Modifications: Set the session id context in OpenSslServerContext so that sessions which use client authentication which are cached have the same context id value. Result: Client authentication now works with open ssl provider.

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.
