Punt on Java 6 and just goto Java 7 with Mina 3?
That could be an option, but I'm afraid that Java 6 will be around
for a few years before Java 7 become the main version in use.
I'd rather think about a solution that detect which Java version is
in use, and if it's Java 7, then allow AIO to be used.
Wouldn't it be possible to provide the AIO Support as a additional
library (for mina 2.x)?
I'm a bit reluctant to make any big change in MINA 2. The code base is
really crippled, and changing anything may make the whole stuff to crawl
down...
I mean: NIO is provided with the NioSocketAcceptor etc. and is
included in the mina lib.
Why not create AioSocketAcceptor-class stuff and provide it as a
separate library, which has to be used with mina 2.x.
So mina can be compiled with java6 sdk and the Aio-Addon-Lib with java7?!
We have to check what could be the impact of such a modification on the
current code base (MINA 3). I'd like MINA 3 to be usable on Java 6 and
Java 7. Not sure it's an option though...
