Motivation: Some users already use an SSLEngine implementation in finagle-native. It wraps OpenSSL to get higher SSL performance. However, to take advantage of it, finagle-native must be compiled manually, and it means we cannot pull it in as a dependency and thus we cannot test our SslHandler against the OpenSSL-based SSLEngine. For an instance, we had #2216. Because the construction procedures of JDK SSLEngine and OpenSslEngine are very different from each other, we also need to provide a universal way to enable SSL in a Netty application. Modifications: - Pull netty-tcnative in as an optional dependency. http://netty.io/wiki/forked-tomcat-native.html - Backport NativeLibraryLoader from 4.0 - Move OpenSSL-based SSLEngine implementation into our code base. - Copied from finagle-native; originally written by @jpinner et al. - Overall cleanup by @trustin. - Run all SslHandler tests with both default SSLEngine and OpenSslEngine - Add a unified API for creating an SSL context - SslContext allows you to create a new SSLEngine or a new SslHandler with your PKCS#8 key and X.509 certificate chain. - Add JdkSslContext and its subclasses - Add OpenSslServerContext - Add ApplicationProtocolSelector to ensure the future support for NPN (NextProtoNego) and ALPN (Application Layer Protocol Negotiation) on the client-side. - Add SimpleTrustManagerFactory to help a user write a TrustManagerFactory easily, which should be useful for those who need to write an alternative verification mechanism. For example, we can use it to implement an unsafe TrustManagerFactory that accepts self-signed certificates for testing purposes. - Add InsecureTrustManagerFactory and FingerprintTrustManager for quick and dirty testing - Add SelfSignedCertificate class which generates a self-signed X.509 certificate very easily. - Update all our examples to use SslContext.newClient/ServerContext() - SslHandler now logs the chosen cipher suite when handshake is finished. Result: - Cleaner unified API for configuring an SSL client and an SSL server regardless of its internal implementation. - When native libraries are available, OpenSSL-based SSLEngine implementation is selected automatically to take advantage of its performance benefit. - Examples take advantage of this modification and thus are cleaner. |

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
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.
