Mark Grover commented on HIVE-2418:
-----------------------------------
No worries, Ed. I thought about that too. However, StringBuilder doesn't have a
clear() so in order to clear it (in a non-hacky way), we have to re-create it.
Alternatively, if we use Text as the return type of processInput() and get rid
of the StringBuilder object, we will have to call Text.append() to append new
code points to the result. Text.append() takes a byte[] as parameter. However,
all the ways I can think of right now to convert a char[] (containing the code
point) to byte[] (for appending to the Text object) involve creating an
immutable String object as an intermediary which kind of defeats the purpose of
moving away from the StringBuilder object.
Given this information, I think it's best if we keep the StringBuilder creation
and the code the way it is. Thanks!
