Trustin Lee commented on NETTY-223:
-----------------------------------

For your convenience, I've just added ThreadNameDeterminer.CURRENT and PROPOSED.  You could reject all attempts to rename threads like the following:

    ThreadRenamingRunnable.setThreadNameDeterminer(ThreadNameDeterminer.CURRENT);

> It was a little bit of a surprise to discover that the names of the threads from the factory, for executors created by Executors.newCachedThreadPool(ThreadFactory tf), were renamed by Netty.
> Usually threads are named upon creation by the thread pool and not renamed. In my experience, at least.
> (If they were renamed to something, it'd be nice to associate it with a particular server instance, like the port. They're pretty generic at the moment.)
> Maybe Netty simply needs to be shipped with a factory class similar to Executors, which creates a thread pool with naming you use internally.
>         NioServerSocketChannelFactory factory = 
>             new NioServerSocketChannelFactory(
>                     NettyExecutors.bossThreadPool(),
>                     NettyExecutors.workerThreadPool()
>                     );
> And why not simply have:
>         NioServerSocketChannelFactory factory = 
>             new NioServerSocketChannelFactory();
> I have a lot of different sorts of handlers and would like to keep them straight. ThreadGroups are one option, but their names don't get logged in the system log with Log4j.
