Kazuomi Kashii commented on GORA-132:
-------------------------------------
In my understanding, it is technically wrong to encode/decode any data type
other than String (sequence of Unicode characters) to/from ByteBuffer
(basically equal to byte array).
It is related to GORA-139. If using UTF8Type as validator, some byte sequence
may be failed on validation as UTF8 sequence, so it causes an exception.
> Uses ByteBufferSerializer for column value to support various data types
> rather than StringSerializer

> When I made a patch to GORA-131, I noticed that gora-cassandra uses
> StringSerializer for column value.
> However, since it needs to support various value types, I think ByteBuffer is
> better than String to/from Hector,
> and gora-cassandra layer should convert values between Gora data bean value
> type and ByteBuffer.
