Motivation: There's no way to override the default settings of the DnsNameResolvers created by DnsNameResolverGroup because DnsNameResolverGroup is final. Modifications: - Make DnsNameResolverGroup non-final - Add a new overridable protected method 'newResolver()' so that a user can override it to create an alternative DnsNameResolver instance or set the non-default properties Result: A user can configure the DnsNameResolver.

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.
