Related: #3476 Motivation: Some users use TrafficCounter for other uses than we originally intended, such as implementing their own traffic shaper. In such a case, a user does not want to specify an AbstractTrafficShapingHandler. Modifications: - Add a new constructor that does not require an AbstractTrafficShapingHandler, so that a user can use it without it. - Simplify TrafficMonitoringTask - Javadoc cleanup Result: We open the possibility of using TrafficCounter for other purposes than just using it with AbstractTrafficShapingHandler. Eventually, we could generalize it a little bit more, so that we can potentially use it for other uses.

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 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.
