Motivation: Http2ServerDowngrader is specifically built for server channels where inbound Http2StreamFrames are converted into HttpRequests, and outbound HttpResponses are converted into Http2StreamFrames. It can be easily made to be more generic to work with client channels where inbound Http2StreamFrames are converted into HttpResponses, and outbound HttpRequests are converted into Http2StreamFrames. Modification: - Renamed Http2ServerDowngrader to a more general Http2StreamFrameToHttpObjectCodec - Made it take in an "isServer" parameter to determine whether encoding inbound Http2StreamFrames should create HttpRequests (for server) or HttpResponses (for client) - Norman fixed a leak in the unit test. Thanks! :-) Result: Now Http2StreamFrameToHttpObjectCodec can be used to translate Http2StreamFrame to HttpObject for both server and client.

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.
