Motivation: If an HTTP/2 client writes data before the connection preface the peer will shutdown the socket. Depending on what is in the pipeline (SslHandler) may require different evaluation criteria to infer when the codec-http2 has written the connection preface on behalf of the client. This can lead to unnecessarily complexity and error prone/racy application code. Modifications: - Introduce a user event that is fired up the pipeline when codec-http2 writes the connection preface Result: Reliable mechanism for applications to use to know when connection preface has been written (related to https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/6272).

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.
