Any object can be written into a netty channel?

[Ming]

The write api only needs an object, so I am wondering what *interface* is assumed for an object to write to a netty channel. I know they can be ByteBuf, String, FileRegion, etc., but what is the common interface for them (and many others)?

Netty allows Object as usually the user want to write some kind of pojo and then use a *Encoder to convert from it to ByteBuf. So your interface should just expose the pojo as type.
