Motivation: When the user constructs Lz4FrameDecoder with a Checksum implementation like CRC32 or Adler32 and uses Java8 we can directly use a ByteBuffer to do the checksum work. This way we can eliminate memory copies. Modifications: Detect if ByteBuffer can be used for checksum work and if so reduce memory copies. Result: Less memory copies when using JDK8

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.
