Motivation: If Netty's class files are renamed and the type references are updated (shaded) the native libraries will not function. The native epoll module uses implicit JNI bindings which requires the fully qualified java type names to match the method signatures of the native methods. This means EPOLL cannot be used with a shaded Netty. Modifications: - Make the JNI method registration dynamic - support a system property io.netty.packagePrefix which must be prepended to the name of the native library (to ensure the correct library is loaded) and all class names (to allow classes to be correctly referenced) - remove system property io.netty.native.epoll.nettyPackagePrefix which was recently added and the code to support it was incomplete Result: transport-native-epoll can be used when Netty has been shaded.

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 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.
