/**
* A {@link DatagramChannelFactory} that creates a NIO-based connectionless
* {@link DatagramChannel}. It utilizes the non-blocking I/O mode which
* was introduced with NIO to serve many number of concurrent connections
* efficiently.
*
* <h3>How threads work</h3>
* <p>
* There is only one thread type in a {@link NioDatagramChannelFactory};
* worker threads.
*
* <h4>Worker threads</h4>
* <p>
* One {@link NioDatagramChannelFactory} can have one or more worker
* threads. A worker thread performs non-blocking read and write for one or
* more {@link DatagramChannel}s in a non-blocking mode.
*
* <h3>Life cycle of threads and graceful shutdown</h3>
* <p>
* All worker threads are acquired from the {@link Executor} which was specified
* when a {@link NioDatagramChannelFactory} was created. Therefore, you should
* make sure the specified {@link Executor} is able to lend the sufficient
* number of threads. It is the best bet to specify
* {@linkplain Executors#newCachedThreadPool() a cached thread pool}.
* <p>
* All worker threads are acquired lazily, and then released when there's
* nothing left to process. All the related resources such as {@link Selector}
* are also released when the worker threads are released. Therefore, to shut
* down a service gracefully, you should do the following:
*
* <ol>
* <li>close all channels created by the factory usually using
* {@link ChannelGroup#close()}, and</li>
* <li>call {@link #releaseExternalResources()}.</li>
* </ol>
*
* Please make sure not to shut down the executor until all channels are
* closed. Otherwise, you will end up with a {@link RejectedExecutionException}
* and the related resources might not be released properly.
*
* <h3>Limitation</h3>
* <p>
* Multicast is not supported. Please use {@link OioDatagramChannelFactory}
* instead.
