Netty 3.4.1.Final does not work on Android

问题:

Yesterday I tried to upgrade from 3.3.2.Final-SNAPSHOT to latest release. However, it fails on Android due to the following error:

• /AndroidRuntime( 720): FATAL EXCEPTION: main E/AndroidRuntime( 720): java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: java.util.concurrent.LinkedTransferQueue E/AndroidRuntime( 720): at org.jboss.netty.util.internal.QueueFactory.createQueue(QueueFactory.java:48)

It turns out that on Android (this is 2.3), DetecationUtil.javaVersion() returns 7 since the Deflater class contains the field SYNC_FLUSH. Below are all fields Deflater.getDeclaredFields().

04-25 08:08:51.305: I/System.out(25674): [public static final int java.util.zip.Deflater.BEST_COMPRESSION, public static final int java.util.zip.Deflater.BEST_SPEED, public static final int java.util.zip.Deflater.DEFAULT_COMPRESSION, public static final int java.util.zip.Deflater.DEFAULT_STRATEGY, public static final int java.util.zip.Deflater.DEFLATED, public static final int java.util.zip.Deflater.FILTERED, private static final int java.util.zip.Deflater.FINISH, public static final int java.util.zip.Deflater.FULL_FLUSH, public static final int java.util.zip.Deflater.HUFFMAN_ONLY, public static final int java.util.zip.Deflater.NO_COMPRESSION, public static final int java.util.zip.Deflater.NO_FLUSH, private static final [B java.util.zip.Deflater.STUB_INPUT_BUFFER, public static final int java.util.zip.Deflater.SYNC_FLUSH, private [B java.util.zip.Deflater.inputBuffer, private boolean java.util.zip.Deflater.finished, private long java.util.zip.Deflater.streamHandle, private int java.util.zip.Deflater.inLength, private int java.util.zip.Deflater.inRead, private int java.util.zip.Deflater.compressLevel, private int java.util.zip.Deflater.strategy, private int java.util.zip.Deflater.flushParm]

Is there any other way that this could be solved so it can work on Android platform? I have not looked into that (yet...). IF android is a platform that should be supported maybe we could also check for android specific classes?

Something like this could be added to int javaVersion0() in DetectionUtil:

try {
        Class.forName("android.app.Application");
        return 5;
    } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
        //Ignore
    }
