最近在学习Netty框架，对着教程上写了个简单的netty应用，可是死活调试不成功，对着程序跟教程上看了几遍也找不到原因，后来又重新写了一遍，服务端程序终于调试成功，原因出在了那个@Skip注释上了，代码如下：
package com.chris.netty;
import io.netty.bootstrap.ServerBootstrap;
import io.netty.buffer.ByteBuf;
import io.netty.buffer.Unpooled;
import io.netty.channel.ChannelFuture;
import io.netty.channel.ChannelHandler.Skip;
import io.netty.channel.ChannelHandlerAdapter;
import io.netty.channel.ChannelHandlerContext;
import io.netty.channel.ChannelInitializer;
import io.netty.channel.ChannelOption;
import io.netty.channel.ChannelPromise;
import io.netty.channel.EventLoopGroup;
import io.netty.channel.SimpleChannelInboundHandler;
import io.netty.channel.nio.NioEventLoopGroup;
import io.netty.channel.socket.SocketChannel;
import io.netty.channel.socket.nio.NioServerSocketChannel;
import io.netty.example.discard.DiscardServerHandler;
import io.netty.handler.logging.LogLevel;
import io.netty.handler.logging.LoggingHandler;
import io.netty.util.ReferenceCountUtil;
import java.net.SocketAddress;
import java.sql.Date;

b.group(bossGroup, workGroup)
.channel(NioServerSocketChannel.class)
.option(ChannelOption.SO_BACKLOG, 1024)
.handler(new LoggingHandler(LogLevel.INFO))
.childHandler(new ChildChannelHandler());
System.out.println("server bind 8888");

System.out.println("finish bind");
f.channel().closeFuture().sync();

}
@Override

throws Exception {

byte[] bytes = new byte[buf.readableBytes()];
buf.readBytes(bytes);
String body = new String(bytes,"UTF-8");
System.out.println("the server receive order:"+body);
String currentTIme = "QUERY CURRENT TIME".equalsIgnoreCase(body)?(new Date(System.currentTimeMillis())).toString():"receive error order";
ByteBuf resp = Unpooled.copiedBuffer(currentTIme.getBytes());
ctx.write(resp);
}
@Override
@Skip
public void channelReadComplete(ChannelHandlerContext ctx) throws Exception {
ctx.flush();
}
@Override
@Skip
public void connect(ChannelHandlerContext ctx, SocketAddress remoteAddress,
SocketAddress localAddress, ChannelPromise promise)
throws Exception {

}
}
这个实现类的每个方法上都有一个@Skip注释，去掉注释之后，程序调试成功，使用netty开发的服务端程序可以正常接收和处理客户端连接。
被这个注释坑了一天了，于是特地去看了netty的源码，以下是关于@Skip源码的说明：
/**
* Indicates that the annotated event handler method in {@link ChannelHandler} will not be invoked by
* {@link ChannelPipeline}. This annotation is only useful when your handler method implementation
* only passes the event through to the next handler, like the following:
*
* <pre>
* {@code @Skip}
* {@code @Override}
* public void channelActive({@link ChannelHandlerContext} ctx) {
* ctx.fireChannelActive(); // do nothing but passing through to the next handler
* }
* </pre>
*
* {@link #handlerAdded(ChannelHandlerContext)} and {@link #handlerRemoved(ChannelHandlerContext)} are not able to
* pass the event through to the next handler, so they must do nothing when annotated.
*
* <pre>
* {@code @Skip}
* {@code @Override}
* public void handlerAdded({@link ChannelHandlerContext} ctx) {
* // do nothing
* }
* </pre>
*
* <p>
* Note that this annotation is not {@linkplain Inherited inherited}. If you override a method annotated with
* {@link Skip}, it will not be skipped anymore. Similarly, you can override a method not annotated with
* {@link Skip} and simply pass the event through to the next handler, which reverses the behavior of the
* supertype.
* </p>
*/
@Target(ElementType.METHOD)
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
@interface Skip {
// no value
}大概意思就是说@Skip注释用来在实现了Handler的实现类中的方法上，程序运行过程中如果某个handler实现中的方法被@Skip注释了，则此方法不会被 ChannelPipeline 对象调用，所以，这就是为什么我的服务端程序死活调试不成功的原因。我们可以看看netty内部执行过程中是如何处理@Skip注释的，通过对源码文件全文扫苗，找到了对@Skip注释的处理都集中在了AbstractChannelHandlerContext中，下面贴出处理@Skip相关的方法源码：
/**
* Returns an integer bitset that tells which handler methods were annotated with {@link Skip}.
* It gets the value from {@link #skipFlagsCache} if an handler of the same type were queried before.
* Otherwise, it delegates to {@link #skipFlags0(Class)} to get it.
*/
static int skipFlags(ChannelHandler handler) {
WeakHashMap<Class<?>, Integer> cache = skipFlagsCache.get();
Class<? extends ChannelHandler> handlerType = handler.getClass();
int flagsVal;
Integer flags = cache.get(handlerType);
if (flags != null) {
flagsVal = flags;
} else {
flagsVal = skipFlags0(handlerType);
cache.put(handlerType, Integer.valueOf(flagsVal));
}
return flagsVal;
}
/**
* Determines the {@link #skipFlags} of the specified {@code handlerType} using the reflection API.
*/

int flags = 0;

flags |= MASK_HANDLER_ADDED;
}

相信不少netty初学者都会碰到此类问题吧，希望这篇文章能对大家有点帮助。
