Andrew Purtell created HBASE-9962: ------------------------------------- Summary: Improve tag iteration Key: HBASE-9962 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9962 Project: HBase Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 0.98.0 Reporter: Andrew Purtell Assignee: Andrew Purtell Fix For: 0.98.0
The tag iterator was moved out of KeyValue into CellUtil and marked as for tests only. HBASE-7662 and HBASE-7663 will use it. The 'length' parameter was made into a short, which is inconvenient for most callers. The methods on KeyValue.Tag for getting tag data offset and length in the tag buffer were made default scope so it's impossible outside of the package to find the tag data in the backing buffer without calling Tag#asList, which might do some unwanted object allocations. Tags#asList also inconveniently uses short for 'length'. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
