Feature/http3 support 4.4 #5287
Conversation
similar to http3
@imz87 can you rebase your PR on the master branch of Vert.x instead ? the 4.4 branch will not get any releases |
it will go to master branch 5.x |
Thanks a lot for your response. I will merge with 5.x |
can you instead perform a clean rebase @imz87 ? |
thank you, I will follow up closely |
No chance of this landing on 4.x too? What is the ETA for 5.x? |
we plan to release 5.0 after Netty 4.2 is released scheduled mid october |
in netty 4.1, http3 is incubator so it owuld be a separate project (becuase incubation), in netty 4.2 http3 will be in the main netty distribution |
Motivation
This PR introduces support for HTTP/3 in Vert.x, leveraging the existing HTTP/3 facilities provided by Netty. The motivation behind this change is to bring the latest HTTP protocol version to Vert.x, allowing developers to take advantage of the performance improvements and new features that HTTP/3 offers, such as reduced latency, improved security, and better handling of packet loss.
Currently, the PR focuses on adding HTTP/3 support for the client side only. This is the first step towards full HTTP/3 integration in Vert.x. The server-side implementation will be addressed in a subsequent PR, and comprehensive testing will be conducted at that stage.
By enabling HTTP/3 support on the client side, this change positions Vert.x to remain a competitive and modern toolkit for reactive applications. It allows developers to begin experimenting with and utilizing HTTP/3 in their client applications, paving the way for broader adoption once server-side support is complete.
