Implementing a generic distributor using protobuf extensions in Netty?

You can specify an ExtensionRegistry when you construct a ProtobufDecoder as described in the API documentation.

Thanks, Trustin - I already knew that but the bit I'm confused about is that I don't want the distributor to know about all the extensions, and therefore the ExtensionRegistry I give to the ProtobufDecoder will be pretty much empty. I think that's OK - I can reserialize the message and pass it on to a handler that does it's own decoding with an ExtensionRegistry that knows about the relevant extensions. Correct?

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
