KQueueEventLoopGroup is ignored

[jamel]

Here it is

async-http-client/client/src/main/java/org/asynchttpclient/netty/channel/ChannelManager.java

Lines 138 to 142 in a6d1cd2

	if (eventLoopGroup instanceof NioEventLoopGroup) {
	channelFactory = NioSocketChannelFactory.INSTANCE;
	} else {
	channelFactory = getEpollSocketChannelFactory();
	}

I just want to use native EventLoopGroup on MacOS.

Contributions welcome :)

I am experiencing the same the same issue. I would be willing to contribute a fix, but I am wondering what would be an acceptable approach. The current approach seems to be too constrained to specific implementations.

I am thinking along the lines of providing a ChannelFactory within AsyncHttpClientConfig when the EventLoopGroup is provided within the configuration.

@elventear If your use case is only to support using a KQueueEventLoopGroup, please do the same as getEpollSocketChannelFactory but test the underlying OS with io.netty.util.internal.PlatformDependent. Just make sure that things with even with netty-transport-native-kqueue in the classpath.
