Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE commented on HADOOP-3347:
------------------------------------------------

{code}
  static UTF8 toLogLong(long timestamp) {
    return new UTF8(Long.toString(timestamp));
  }

void logRename(String src, String dst, long timestamp) {
    UTF8 info[] = new UTF8[] { 
      new UTF8(src),
      new UTF8(dst),
      FSEditLog.toLogLong(timestamp)};
    logEdit(OP_RENAME, new ArrayWritable(UTF8.class, info));
  }
{code}
For example, logRename converts timestamp from long to UTF8.  Then, it creates 
an ArrayWritable to hold everything.  A better way would be using LongWritable 
and writing everything directly without creating an ArrayWritable.
