Motivation: Currently clients attempting to send headers that are too large recieve a RST frame. This makes it harder than needed for implementations on top of netty to handle this in a graceful way. Modifications: When the Decoder throws a StreamError of type FRAME_SIZE_ERROR, the Http2ConnectionHandler will now attempt to send an Http2Header with status 431 and endOfStream=true Result: Implementations now do not have to subclass parts of netty to handle 431s
Netty Project

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.
