David Yan commented on APEXMALHAR-2251: --------------------------------------- Extending the netlet Slice class in Malhar is just a temporary measure to fix the hashCode issue and it paves the path of getting rid of netlet entirely when we migrate to Netty. It's a one time fix for everywhere that uses Slice. When we get rid of netlet, we can discuss what to do with the Slice class (whether we want it to extend from ByteBuffer or just copy the code from netlet minus the buggy hashCode function), without changing code that uses Slice. > Replace dependency on com.datatorrent.netlet.util.Slice > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: APEXMALHAR-2251 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/APEXMALHAR-2251 > Project: Apache Apex Malhar > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: bright chen > > Dependency on com.datatorrent.netlet.util.Slice should be replaced with > either java.nio.ByteBuffer or internal malhar class that provides similar > functionality. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
