Motivation: 2b6525856868ab1788db957ff8af8eb22b42c774 only partially addressed the synchronization issues that are present in FlowControlHandlerTest. A few tests are attempting to validate state changes made across an EventLoop thread and the JUnit thread but are not properly synchronized. Modifications: - Ensure that conditions which verify expectations set in another thread have synchronization gates to ensure the event has actually occurred. - Remove the message counter verification in favor of using individual CountDownLatch objects Result: FLowControlHanderTest has less race conditions which may lead to test failures.

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.
