> In Cell interface 
> (hbase-common/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/Cell.java)
> (1) We have the following comment for "qualifier"
> {code}
> /**
>   * Contiguous raw bytes that may start at any index in the containing array. 
> Max length is
>   * Short.MAX_VALUE which is 32,767 bytes.
>   * @return The array containing the qualifier bytes.
>   */
> {code}
> But getQualifierLength() returns int
> {code}
> int getQualifierLength();
> {code}
> (2) We have the following comment for "value"
> {code}
>   /**
>    * Contiguous raw bytes that may start at any index in the containing 
> array. Max length is
>    * Integer.MAX_VALUE which is 2,147,483,648 bytes.
>    * @return The array containing the value bytes.
>    */
> {code}
> Integer.MAX_VALUE is not 2,147,483,648 (2^31), but 2,147,483,647 (2^31-1)
