/**
* A decoder that splits the received {@link ByteBuf}s dynamically by the
* value of the length field in the message. It is particularly useful when you
* decode a binary message which has an integer header field that represents the
* length of the message body or the whole message.
*
* {@link LengthFieldBasedFrameDecoder} has many configuration parameters so
* that it can decode any message with a length field, which is often seen in
* proprietary client-server protocols. Here are some example that will give
* you the basic idea on which option does what.
*
*
2 bytes length field at offset 0, do not strip header
*
* The value of the length field in this example is 12 (0x0C) which
* represents the length of "HELLO, WORLD". By default, the decoder assumes
* that the length field represents the number of the bytes that follows the
* length field. Therefore, it can be decoded with the simplistic parameter
* combination.
*
* lengthFieldOffset = 0
* lengthFieldLength = 2
* lengthAdjustment = 0
* initialBytesToStrip = 0 (= do not strip header)
*
* BEFORE DECODE (14 bytes) AFTER DECODE (14 bytes)
* +--------+----------------+ +--------+----------------+
* | Length | Actual Content |----->| Length | Actual Content |
* | 0x000C | "HELLO, WORLD" | | 0x000C | "HELLO, WORLD" |
* +--------+----------------+ +--------+----------------+
*
*
* 2 bytes length field at offset 0, strip header
*
* Because we can get the length of the content by calling
* {@link ByteBuf#readableBytes()}, you might want to strip the length
* field by specifying initialBytesToStrip. In this example, we
* specified 2, that is same with the length of the length field, to
* strip the first two bytes.
*
* lengthFieldOffset = 0
* lengthFieldLength = 2
* lengthAdjustment = 0
* initialBytesToStrip = 2 (= the length of the Length field)
*
* BEFORE DECODE (14 bytes) AFTER DECODE (12 bytes)
* +--------+----------------+ +----------------+
* | Length | Actual Content |----->| Actual Content |
* | 0x000C | "HELLO, WORLD" | | "HELLO, WORLD" |
* +--------+----------------+ +----------------+
*
*
* 2 bytes length field at offset 0, do not strip header, the length field
* represents the length of the whole message
*
* In most cases, the length field represents the length of the message body
* only, as shown in the previous examples. However, in some protocols, the
* length field represents the length of the whole message, including the
* message header. In such a case, we specify a non-zero
* lengthAdjustment. Because the length value in this example message
* is always greater than the body length by 2, we specify -2
* as lengthAdjustment for compensation.
*
* lengthFieldOffset = 0
* lengthFieldLength = 2
* lengthAdjustment = -2 (= the length of the Length field)
* initialBytesToStrip = 0
*
* BEFORE DECODE (14 bytes) AFTER DECODE (14 bytes)
* +--------+----------------+ +--------+----------------+
* | Length | Actual Content |----->| Length | Actual Content |
* | 0x000E | "HELLO, WORLD" | | 0x000E | "HELLO, WORLD" |
* +--------+----------------+ +--------+----------------+
*
*
* 3 bytes length field at the end of 5 bytes header, do not strip header
*
* The following message is a simple variation of the first example. An extra
* header value is prepended to the message. lengthAdjustment is zero
* again because the decoder always takes the length of the prepended data into
* account during frame length calculation.
*
* lengthFieldOffset = 2 (= the length of Header 1)
* lengthFieldLength = 3
* lengthAdjustment = 0
* initialBytesToStrip = 0
*
* BEFORE DECODE (17 bytes) AFTER DECODE (17 bytes)
* +----------+----------+----------------+ +----------+----------+----------------+
* | Header 1 | Length | Actual Content |----->| Header 1 | Length | Actual Content |
* | 0xCAFE | 0x00000C | "HELLO, WORLD" | | 0xCAFE | 0x00000C | "HELLO, WORLD" |
* +----------+----------+----------------+ +----------+----------+----------------+
*
*
* 3 bytes length field at the beginning of 5 bytes header, do not strip header
*
* This is an advanced example that shows the case where there is an extra
* header between the length field and the message body. You have to specify a
* positive lengthAdjustment so that the decoder counts the extra
* header into the frame length calculation.
*
* lengthFieldOffset = 0
* lengthFieldLength = 3
* lengthAdjustment = 2 (= the length of Header 1)
* initialBytesToStrip = 0
*
* BEFORE DECODE (17 bytes) AFTER DECODE (17 bytes)
* +----------+----------+----------------+ +----------+----------+----------------+
* | Length | Header 1 | Actual Content |----->| Length | Header 1 | Actual Content |
* | 0x00000C | 0xCAFE | "HELLO, WORLD" | | 0x00000C | 0xCAFE | "HELLO, WORLD" |
* +----------+----------+----------------+ +----------+----------+----------------+
*
*
* 2 bytes length field at offset 1 in the middle of 4 bytes header,
* strip the first header field and the length field
*
* This is a combination of all the examples above. There are the prepended
* header before the length field and the extra header after the length field.
* The prepended header affects the lengthFieldOffset and the extra
* header affects the lengthAdjustment. We also specified a non-zero
* initialBytesToStrip to strip the length field and the prepended
* header from the frame. If you don't want to strip the prepended header, you
* could specify 0 for initialBytesToSkip.
*
* lengthFieldOffset = 1 (= the length of HDR1)
* lengthFieldLength = 2
* lengthAdjustment = 1 (= the length of HDR2)
* initialBytesToStrip = 3 (= the length of HDR1 + LEN)
*
* BEFORE DECODE (16 bytes) AFTER DECODE (13 bytes)
* +------+--------+------+----------------+ +------+----------------+
* | HDR1 | Length | HDR2 | Actual Content |----->| HDR2 | Actual Content |
* | 0xCA | 0x000C | 0xFE | "HELLO, WORLD" | | 0xFE | "HELLO, WORLD" |
* +------+--------+------+----------------+ +------+----------------+
*
*
* 2 bytes length field at offset 1 in the middle of 4 bytes header,
* strip the first header field and the length field, the length field
* represents the length of the whole message
*
* Let's give another twist to the previous example. The only difference from
* the previous example is that the length field represents the length of the
* whole message instead of the message body, just like the third example.
* We have to count the length of HDR1 and Length into lengthAdjustment.
* Please note that we don't need to take the length of HDR2 into account
* because the length field already includes the whole header length.
*
* lengthFieldOffset = 1
* lengthFieldLength = 2
* lengthAdjustment = -3 (= the length of HDR1 + LEN, negative)
* initialBytesToStrip = 3
*
* BEFORE DECODE (16 bytes) AFTER DECODE (13 bytes)
* +------+--------+------+----------------+ +------+----------------+
* | HDR1 | Length | HDR2 | Actual Content |----->| HDR2 | Actual Content |
* | 0xCA | 0x0010 | 0xFE | "HELLO, WORLD" | | 0xFE | "HELLO, WORLD" |
* +------+--------+------+----------------+ +------+----------------+
