Motivation:
We're getting to the examples now! This patch updates NIOEchoClient to
be clean under strict concurrency.
Modifications:
Use the sync operations to add echo handler.
Result:
Another strict concurrency module.

Motivation:
Since Swift 5.5 and [SE-0299](https://github.com/swiftlang/swift-evolution/blob/main/proposals/0299-extend-generic-static-member-lookup.md) it is possible to add static members to protocols which are discoverable through the shorthand dot syntax.
This change reduces type repetition and improves call-site legibility.
Modifications:
Added extensions for ChannelOption with static members where Self is bound to a concrete type.
Result:
ChannelOption types can be used with the leading dot syntax. For eg:
```
//before
.channelOption(ChannelOptions.explicitCongestionNotification, value: true)
.channelOption(ChannelOptions.socketOption(.so_reuseaddr), value: 1)
//after
.channelOption(.explicitCongestionNotification, value: true)
.channelOption(.socketOption(.so_reuseaddr), value: 1)
```

Motivation:
The remaining NIO code really conceptually belongs in a module called
NIOPosix, and NIOCore should really be called NIO. We can't really do
that last step, but we can prepare by pushing the bulk of the remaining
code into a module called NIOPosix.
Modifications:
- Move NIO to NIOPosix
- Make NIO an umbrella module.
Result:
NIOPosix exists.
Motivation:
As we've largely completed our move to split out our core abstractions,
we now have an opportunity to clean up our dependencies and imports. We
should arrange for everything to only import NIO if it actually needs
it, and to correctly express dependencies on NIOCore and NIOEmbedded
where they exist.
We aren't yet splitting out tests that only test functionality in
NIOCore, that will follow in a separate patch.
Modifications:
- Fixed up imports
- Made sure our protocols only require NIOCore.
Result:
Better expression of dependencies.

Motivation:
There are multiple sub-optimal ByteBuffer creation patterns that occur
in the wild. Most often they happen when people don't actually have
access to a `Channel` just want to "convert" a `String` into a
`ByteBuffer`. To do this, they are forced to type
var buffer = ByteBufferAllocator().buffer(capacity: string.utf8.count)
buffer.writeString(string)
Sometimes, they don't get the capacity calculation right or just put a
`0`.
Similar problems happen if NIO users want to cache a ByteBuffer in their
`ChannelHandler`. You will then find this code:
```swift
if self.buffer == nil {
self.buffer = receivedBuffer
} else {
var receivedBuffer = receivedBuffer
self.buffer!.writeBuffer(&receivedBuffer)
}
```
And lastly, sometimes people want to append one `ByteBuffer` to another
without mutating the appendee. That's also cumbersome because we only
support a mutable version of `writeBuffer`.
Modifications:
- add `ByteBuffer` convenience initialisers
- add convenience `writeBuffer` methods to `Optional<ByteBuffer>`
- add `writeBufferImmutable` which doesn't mutate the appendee.
Result:
More convenience.

Motivation:
The names of most of the BSD socket option values were brought over into
their NIO helper properties, with their namespace removed. This vastly
increases the risk of collision, particularly for things like TCP_INFO,
which just became .info.
Modifications:
- Added the prefixes back, e.g. `.info` is now `.tcp_info`.
- Renamed socket type `.dgram` to `.datagram`, as this is the nice clean
API and we should use nice clean names.
Result:
Better APIs
* NIO: Add new `BSDSocket` namespace
This starts the split of the POSIX/Linux/Darwin/BSD interfaces and the
BSD Socket interfaces in order to support Windows. The constants on
Windows are not part of the C standard library and need to be explicitly
prefixed. Use the import by name to avoid the `#if` conditions on the
wrapped versions. This will allow us to cleanly cleave the dependency
on the underlying C library.
This change adds a `BSDSocket.OptionLevel` and `BSDSocket.Option` types
which allow us to get proper enumerations for these values and pipe them
throughout the NIO codebase.
* Apply suggestions from code review

Motivation:
When first viewing the example classes, coming to the ‘read’ method first, leaves the subject unclear as to what the method is ‘reading’.
It is preferable to view something being sent first, and then to view the reading of the response.
It also matches the call order against the protocol making it a little easier for those unfamiliar with the protocol to see which methods have been implemented.
Modifications:
Moved channel active calls to be top of the class.
Despite the diff there are no actual code modifications.
UDP Client changed to indent using spaces to match rest of project. Incidental change.
Result:
The examples are slighter clearer to read, particularly for newcomers to swift-no as the calls are in a logical chronological order.
Motivation:
There is a UDP echo client which is very similar to the NIOEchoClient.
The styles of these two examples should match closely so ‘diff’ comparing will show the pertinent API differences.
Modifications:
Add self tags to member variables in the TCP echo client.
Add a self tag to a member variable in the HTTP1 server.
Remove an assert from the echo client.
Result:
The code in the TCP and UDP examples now matches and fits the SwiftNIO style.
Motivation:
`ctx` was always an abbreviation was 'context` and in Swift we don't
really use abbreviations, so let's fix it.
Modifications:
- rename all instances of `ctx` to `context`
Result:
- fixes#483
Motivation:
- `ChannelPipeline.add(name:handler:...)` had a strange order of arguments
- `remove(handler:)` and `remove(ctx:)` both remove `ChannelHandler`s
but they read like they remove different things
So let's just fix the argument order and name them `addHandler` and
`removeHandler` making clear what they do.
Modifications:
- rename all `ChannelPipeline.add(name:handler:...)`s to `ChannelPipeline.addHandler(_:name:...)`
- rename all `ChannelPipeline.remove(...)`s to `ChannelPipeline.removeHandler(...)`
Result:
more readable and consistent code
Motivation:
ByteBuffer methods like `set(string:)` never felt very Swift-like and
also didn't look the same as their counterparts like `getString(...)`.
Modifications:
- rename all `ByteBuffer.set/write(<type>:,...)` methods to
`ByteBuffer.set/write<Type>(...)`
- polyfill the old spellings in `_NIO1APIShims`
Result:
code more Swift-like
Motivation:
While getting into NIO through the examples I stumbled
accross some chained dropFirst() calls, which can be
simplified by using dropFirst(_:) instead.
Modifications:
I did a quick project-wide search of chained dropFirst()
usage and modified every line to use dropFirst(_:) instead.
Result:
This will only effect the readability of the code,
not its functionality.
Motivation:
I was testing the NIOEchoClient example on Linux and noticed that I received no character output.
I thought this would be handy and added this code to do so.
Modifications:
Small modification to the channelRead method in NIOEchoClient to read the bytes and transform to a string.
Result:
The display of the characters on your echo client before the channel closes.
Motivation:
I came across a few typos and then went through the entire code base
fixing similar errors when I noticed a pattern.
Modifications:
No changes to the code, just to comments.
Result:
No changes.
Motivation:
We should be consistent with naming and also choose descriptive names.
Modifications:
- Deprecate old init method that uses numThreads
- Add new init with numberOfThreads param name
- Everywhere use the new init
Result:
More consistent and descriptive naming. Fixes https://github.com/apple/swift-nio/issues/432.
Motivation:
Passing in a function directly makes the code a bit more concise.
Modifications:
Changing `flatMap { Int($0) }` to `flatMap(Int.init)`.
Result:
More concise code.
Motivation:
There were a couple of places in the Channel implementations that just
weren't thread-safe at all, namely:
- localAddress
- remoetAddress
- parent
those are now fixed. I also re-ordered the code so it should be easier
to maintain in the future (the `// MARK` markers were totally
incorrect).
Modifications:
- made Channel.{local,remote}Address return a future
- made Channel.parent a `let`
- unified more of `SocketChannel` and `DatagramSocketChannel`
- fixed the `// MARK`s by reordering code
- annotated methods/properties that are in the Channel API and need to
be thread-safe
Result:
slightly more thread-safety :)
Motivation:
Foundation is problematic for a few reasons:
- its implementation is different on Linux and on macOS which means our
macOS tests might be inaccurate
- on macOS it uses ObjC Foundation which means the autorelease pool
might get populated
- it links the world on Linux which means we can't do static
binaries at all
Modifications:
removed the last bits of Foundation dependency
Result:
no Foundation dependency
Motivation:
We do not need to use return in the closures used in the examples.
Modifications:
- Remove return
- Remove bug where we set the same channel option two times in one example
Result:
Cleaner code.
Motivation:
Lots of our most important operations had redundant labels like
func write(data: NIOAny)
the `data: ` label doesn't add anything meaningful and therefore it
should be removed.
Modifications:
removed lots of redundant labels
Result:
less redundant labels
Motiviation:
We already include an echo server as example but not a client portion. This example sends a message to the server and once it received back the message it will close the connection and exit.
Modification:
Add NIOEchoClient example.
Result:
More examples.
