Workaround to use Netty 4.1 with TLS on Android
See original GitHub issueWe need to run a gRPC server on Android so we’re planning to use Netty for that. Everything seems to work, but we had to change the following:
Because PlatformDependent.javaVersion() >= 8 won’t be true on Android.
Like I’ve said, things seem to work based on the testing we’ve done so far, but I wanted to check a couple of things:
- Why
PlatformDependent.javaVersion() >= 8? What could break if it’s6? That way we can check those things on Android. - Would you be open to a PR that changed that expression with something that worked on Android? Like
CAN_INSTANCE_PROVIDER && IS_CONSCRYPT_SSLENGINE != null && (PlatformDependent.isAndroid() || PlatformDependent.javaVersion() >= 8)
