Migrating Logback Configuration from XML to Groovy

Devops Java
I’ve recently switched logback configuration of our application from XML to Groovy. Configuration file is not about 5 times smaller and can be displayed on one screen! Groovy helped to remove duplicating parts of configurations by using for loop. The moving was easy thanks to online conversion tool. And don’t forget to add a groovy-all runtime dependency to your project config.

Netty: How to Initiate SSL Handshake From Client

Programming Java Netty

I have had spent some time recently making netty 3.6 sending some message when connection has been established.
