Motivation: The Http2FrameListener requires that the Http2FrameReader accumulate ByteBuf objects. There is currently no way to limit the amount of bytes that is accumulated. Motiviation: - DefaultHttp2FrameReader supports maxHeaderSize which will fail fast as soon as the maximum size is exceeded. - DefaultHttp2HeadersDecoder will respect the return value of endHeaderBlock() and fail if the max size is exceeded. Result: Frames which carry header data now respect a maximum number of bytes that can be accumulated.

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.
