Motivation: Fixes #5084. We (gRPC) encountered a bug that was triggered by grpc/grpc-java@d927180. After that commit, event loop threads are created per task by NioEventLoopGroup, and inherits the thread group of the caller, which in our case is an application-provided request-scope thread. Things go south when the application tries to manipulate (e.g., interrupt and join) all threads of the request-scope thread group, which unexpectedly include the event loop threads. Modifications: DefaultThreadFactory will save the current thread group in constructor, and apply it to all new threads. Result: Threads created by DefaultThreadFactory will be in the same thread group as the thread where the factory is created. |

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.
