Related issue: #2179 and #2173 Motivation: When a WebSocket server responds to a WebSocket handshake request with its first WebSocket frame, it is sometimes swallowed by HttpMessageDecoder. This issue has been fixed by 4f6ccbbb78c88c82aa02c77fe7592709cfbf7922 in 4 and 5, but was not. Modification: Backport the UPGRADED state and the fix for #2173 to HttpMessageDecoder Result: The data sent by the server following an HTTP upgrade response is not lost anymore.

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
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 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.
