Nate McCall commented on CASSANDRA-2379: ---------------------------------------- We have a testcase for this in Hector which periodically fails on macs (uses ByteBufferUtil method for verification of results): https://github.com/rantav/hector/blob/master/core/src/test/java/me/prettyprint/cassandra/serializers/StringSerializerTest.java > ByteBufferUtil#bytes(String) can produce undesired results for some characters > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: CASSANDRA-2379 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2379 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Nate McCall > Attachments: 2379.txt > > > The difference between getBytes(java.nio.charset.Charset) vs. > getBytes("[charsetname]") on some platforms (mac it seems) can be > substantial. From the java.lang.String javadoc for the former: > This method always replaces malformed-input and unmappable-character > sequences with this charset's default replacement byte array... > vs. the latter: > The behavior of this method when this string cannot be encoded in the default > charset is unspecified. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
