Motivation: We missed to correctly retrieve the localAddress() after we called Socket.connect(..) and so the user would always see an incorrect address when calling EpollSocketChannel.localAddress(). Modifications: - Ensure we always retrieve the localAddress() after we called Socket.connect(...) as only after this we will be able to receive the correct address. - Add unit test Result: Correct and consistent behaviour across different transports (NIO/OIO/EPOLL).

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.
