Buffer class' toString method should accept a code name for "true" utf-8 codeName ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-2663 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2663 Project: Hadoop Issue Type: Improvement Components: record Reporter: Runping Qi Assignee: Milind Bhandarkar 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. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
