08/29/2018, 3:12 PMHi, I have a problem. I'm getting constant exceptions in my application hosted with netty. The application I'm running is a plugin inside another software that also uses Netty. However, they use version 4.1.6.Final and Ktor uses a much newer version. This does not seem to work as Netty constantly throws exceptions that it can't find certain classes etc. Is there a fix for this? I already tried excluding Netty from the Ktor maven dependency, but that does not seem to work.

08/29/2018, 4:00 PMWell, I'm using Nukkit software (https://github.com/NukkitX/Nukkit/blob/master/pom.xml#L110) and I was using Ktor 0.9.3. 0.9.0 worked fine. I do not have any FOSS project that I could share right now.

Unfortunately Netty doesn’t maintain binary compatibility good enough… I don’t think we can do a lot here…

We have 4.1.24 and you have 4.1.6, which means they should be fully binary compatible, but they are not

You can try building ktor with that Netty version (see https://github.com/ktorio/ktor/blob/master/gradle.properties#L7), but we cannot guarantee it will work correctly.

I tried, no chance. It won’t even compile.
