Eric Anderson e5a31a4282 Automatically detect shaded packagePrefix
Motivation:

Shading requires renaming binary components (.so, .dll; for tcnative,
epoll, etc). But the rename then requires setting the
io.netty.packagePrefix system property on the command line or runtime,
which is either a burden or not feasible.

If you don't rename the binary components everything appears to
work, until a dependency on a second version of the binary component is
added. At that point, only one version of the binary will be loaded...
which is what shading is supposed to prevent. So for valid shading, the
binaries must be renamed.

Modifications:

Automatically detect the package prefix by comparing the actual class
name to the non-shaded expected class name. The expected class name must
be obfuscated to prevent shading utilities from changing it.

Result:

When shading and using binary components, runtime configuration is no
longer necessary.

Pre-existing shading users that were not renaming the binary components
will break, because the packagePrefix previously defaulted to "". Since
these pre-existing users had broken configurations that only _appeared_
to work, this breakage is considered a Good Thing. Users may workaround
this breakage temporarily by setting -Dio.netty.packagePrefix= to
restore packagePrefix to "".

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:

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.
