Todd Lipcon updated HADOOP-10855:
---------------------------------
Attachment: hadoop-10855.txt
Attached patch implements readWithKnownLength(). I also refactored the common
code out from the existing read methods to call this new one after
deserializing the length. Added a simple new unit test to verify.
> Allow Text to be read with a known length

> For the native task work (MAPREDUCE-2841) it is useful to be able to store
> strings in a different fashion than the default (varint-prefixed)
> serialization. We should provide a "read" method in Text which takes an
> already-known length to support this use case while still providing Text
> objects back to the user.
