Motivation: We did not guard against the case of calling malloc(0) when creating a ByteBuffer without a Cleaner. The problem is that malloc(0) can have different behaviour, it either return a null-pointer or a valid pointer that you can pass to free. The real problem arise if Unsafe.allocateMemory(0) returns 0 and we use it as the memoryAddress of the ByteBuffer. The problem here is that native libraries test for 0 and handle it as a null-ptr. This is for example true in SSL.bioSetByteBuffer(...) which would throw a NPE when 0 is used as memoryAddress and so produced errors during SSL usage. Modifications: - Always allocate 1 byte as minimum (even if we ask for an empty buffer). - Add unit test. Result: No more errors possible because of malloc(0). |

Netty Project
Netty is an asynchronous event-driven network application framework for rapid development of maintainable high performance protocol servers & clients.

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.
Usage with JDK 9
Netty can be used in modular JDK9 applications as a collection of automatic modules. The module names follow the reverse-DNS style, and are derived from subproject names rather than root packages due to historical reasons. They are listed below:
io.netty.allio.netty.bufferio.netty.codecio.netty.codec.dnsio.netty.codec.haproxyio.netty.codec.httpio.netty.codec.http2io.netty.codec.memcacheio.netty.codec.mqttio.netty.codec.redisio.netty.codec.smtpio.netty.codec.socksio.netty.codec.stompio.netty.codec.xmlio.netty.commonio.netty.handlerio.netty.handler.proxyio.netty.resolverio.netty.resolver.dnsio.netty.transportio.netty.transport.epoll(nativeomitted - reserved keyword in Java)io.netty.transport.kqueue(nativeomitted - reserved keyword in Java)io.netty.transport.unix.common(nativeomitted - reserved keyword in Java)io.netty.transport.rxtxio.netty.transport.sctpio.netty.transport.udt
Automatic modules do not provide any means to declare dependencies, so you need to list each used module separately
in your module-info file.
