Motivation: The 4.1.0-Beta3 implementation of HttpObjectAggregator.handleOversizedMessage closes the connection if the client sent oversized chunked data with no Expect: 100-continue header. This causes a broken pipe or "connection reset by peer" error in some clients (tested on Firefox 31 OS X 10.9.5, async-http-client 1.8.14). This part of the HTTP 1.1 spec (below) seems to say that in this scenario the connection should not be closed (unless the intention is to be very strict about how data should be sent). http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec8.html "If an origin server receives a request that does not include an Expect request-header field with the "100-continue" expectation, the request includes a request body, and the server responds with a final status code before reading the entire request body from the transport connection, then the server SHOULD NOT close the transport connection until it has read the entire request, or until the client closes the connection. Otherwise, the client might not reliably receive the response message. However, this requirement is not be construed as preventing a server from defending itself against denial-of-service attacks, or from badly broken client implementations." Modifications: Change HttpObjectAggregator.handleOversizedMessage to close the connection only if keep-alive is off and Expect: 100-continue is missing. Update test to reflect the change. Result: Broken pipe and connection reset errors on the client are avoided when oversized data is sent. |

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.
