Motivation: PriorityStreamByteDistributor saves exception state and attempts to reset state. This could be simplified by just throwing a connection error and closing the connection. PriorityStreamByteDistributor also does not handle or detect re-entry in the distribute method. Motivation: - PriorityStreamByteDistributor propagate an INTERNAL_ERROR if an exception occurs during writing - PriorityStreamByteDistributor to handle re-entry on the write method Result: PriorityStreamByteDistributor exception code state simplified, and re-entry is detected.

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.
