Hey Norman,
Second question of the day!
I'm porting an existing server to Netty. I have a requirement where I need to have server sockets bound but not in a state where they will accept connections, i.e. without the OP_ACCEPT registered. AUI, clients that attempt to connect during that time will not fail but will be queued until the server is ready to accept connections.
Then some time later I want to say "hey now you can start accepting connections", and then register the OP_ACCEPT. Looking at NioServerSocket it seems currently to always start with OP_ACCEPT.
Any thoughts on how I can achieve this behaviour with Netty?
