Runping Qi commented on HADOOP-2663:
------------------------------------


On the flip side, the Buffer should provide a constructor taking a utf-8 String 
object as a parameter.


> Buffer class' toString method should accept a code name for "true" utf-8 
> codeName

> Currently, if one call toString("UTF-8"), a String object is created using 
> Java's converion code.
> That does not work properly for some rare but still true utf-8 bytes. Hadoop 
> has its own utf-8 conversion 
> code for string serialization/deserialization. The same code should be used 
> here.
