Nick Dimiduk commented on HBASE-9091: ------------------------------------- In the interest of squeezing OrderedBytes and DataType into 0.95.2, I've taken the approach described above. We can go back and make improvements to the API later if we so desire. > Update ByteRange to maintain consumer's position > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HBASE-9091 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9091 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Client > Reporter: Nick Dimiduk > Assignee: Nick Dimiduk > Fix For: 0.95.2 > > Attachments: 0001-HBASE-9091-Extend-ByteRange.patch, > 0001-HBASE-9091-Extend-ByteRange.patch > > > ByteRange is a useful alternative to Java's ByteBuffer. Notably, it is > mutable and an instance can be assigned over a byte[] after instantiation. > This is valuable as a performance consideration when working with byte[] > slices in a tight loop. Its current design is such that it is not possible to > consume a portion of the range while performing activities like decoding an > object without altering the definition of the range. It should provide a > position that is independent from the range's offset and length to make > partial reads easier. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
