Motivation: When a hostname cannot be resolved, the message in the UnknownHostException mentions the hostname with the last attempted search domain appended, which is kind of confusing. I would prefer to see the original hostname supplied to the method in the exception. Modifications: Store the pristine hostname in the resolver context and use it to create the exception message instead of the hostname with search domain. Add unit test to check that the exception does not mention the search domain. Result: The exception mentions the unmodified hostname in the message.

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.
