Motivation
.NET Core tooling allows building for both .NET Framework and .NET Standard while easing pains of running tests and packaging.
Modifications
- csproj -> xproj + project.json
- support for .NET Standard 1.3
- build script is now based on CAKE
- using dotnet CLI for building, testing, packing
- strong name by default (snk included)
Result
DotNetty works on .NET Core and any other platform supporting .NET Standard 1.3+.
Motivation:
SocketException and ODE are being thrown when disconnecting gracefully.
Modifications:
- dismiss async read completion if it is done on inactive channel
- do not attempt sync-reading from a socket that is not Connected
- extra: fixing echo sample with better practices
- extra: ReadListener for more natural test scenarios
- extra: tweaked nbench spec to work in-loop
Result:
No excessive errors happen during graceful shutdown
Motivation:
In order to avoid buffer copies and yet perform IO efficiently,
it is essential to support sending multiple byte sequences in one call.
Also there should be no additional constraints on IByteBuffer implementations
in order to be accepted by TcpSocketChannel for sending.
Modifications:
- IoBufferCount, GetIoBuffer(), GetIoBuffers() are ported to IByteBuffer and implementations.
- ChannelOutboundBuffer is extended to leverage *IoBuffer* members in order to prepare buffer batches for sending.
- TcpSocketChannel and its ancestors were extended to support sending (sync and async) a list of array segments.
- Extra: fixes WriterIndex positioning in ByteBufferUtil.EncodeString(..).
- Extra: TLS support and exception reporting in benchmark (commented out).
- Extra: fixes async send path in TcpSocketChannel and AbstractSocketChannel.
Result:
A benchmark of single client channel writing to a single server channel runs 3 times faster at 150K op/sec (vs 53K op/sec before) with no increase in CPU consumption.
CompositeByteBuffer can be used directly in IChannel.WriteAsync.
