Will bukkit be using Netty?

  1. In 1.7.2, minecraft now uses Netty for its networking code.
    Does this mean CraftBukkit is going to use Netty or just adapt to support the new Minecraft Protocol?

    I don't have any experience with this area of the code, but when I searched CraftBukkit source code for Netty I see the following class instantiation in NetworkManager.java:


    import net.minecraft.util.io.netty.channel.nio.NioEventLoopGroup;

    ...

    publicstaticfinal NioEventLoopGroup f = new NioEventLoopGroup(0, (new ThreadFactoryBuilder()).setNameFormat("Netty Client IO #%d").setDaemon(true).build());

    and code in that file references a lot of Netty objects/methods. So it appears CraftBukkit already tying into it.

    CraftBukkit utilizes netty.
