Motivation: Netty uses edge-triggered epoll by default for performance reasons. The downside here is that a messagesPerRead limit can not be enforced correctly, as we need to consume everything from the channel when notified. Modification: - Allow to switch epoll modes before channel is registered - Some refactoring to share more code Result: It's now possible to switch epoll mode. |

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
The 'master' branch is where the development of the latest major version lives on. The development of all other major versions takes place in each branch whose name is identical to its major version number. For example, the development of 3.x and 4.x resides in the branch '3' and the branch '4' respectively.
