Posting messages / timer callbacks to IO threads

[mattklein123]

Hi,

One thing I like about Boost ASIO is that it allows you to post arbitrary
messages and/or timer callbacks to IO threads. If an application has been
designed to be single threaded, for example, this allows timers to be used
on the same thread without needing a) extra threads, and b) extra
synchronization. 

I have searched and I can't see any obvious way of doing this with Netty. Is
there a way of doing this?

Thanks,
Matt
