stack commented on HBASE-5856: ------------------------------ I think regionNameStr in HRI is wrong. We should only do toBytesBinary for the cases where we are outputting in shell or in ui; toBytesBinary is for human consumption. HBase should be about undoctored bytes. > byte <-> String is not consistent between HBaseAdmin and HRegionInfo > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-5856 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5856 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Components: client > Affects Versions: 0.90.6, 0.92.1 > Reporter: binlijin > > In HBaseAdmin > public void split(final String tableNameOrRegionName) > throws IOException, InterruptedException { > split(Bytes.toBytes(tableNameOrRegionName)); // string -> byte > } > In HRegionInfo > this.regionNameStr = Bytes.toStringBinary(this.regionName); // byte -> > string > Should we use Bytes.toBytesBinary in HBaseAdmin ? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
