Http integration issues

[bburke]

I'm integrating RESTEasy with Netty.  One big problem I'm having is that I
have to implement a synchronous input model over netty's asynchronous input
model.

In other words, I have to create an InputStream for an HTTP message body and
send it off to resteasy/jaxrs/application code to be processed.  Works fine
if you buffer the *entire* incoming message in memory that hands off
everything to Resteasy.  Great for unit testing.

But, if we want to use Netty as a real HTTP server, i need to be able to
pull the channel for events, rather than have them pushed.  Otherwise, I'll
have to create a separate thread and do context switching for any HTTP
request that is Chunked.  Which will pretty much be a significant(?)
performance hit.

Maybe I just don't understand Netty...Apologies if this is a RTFM problem as
I've only looked at the Http example program.

Thanks,

Bill
