Dawid Weiss commented on LUCENE-3590:
-------------------------------------
bq. it's normally not going to be what a user really wants
You're right, this would be even more confusing.
All I know is this class is abused because there was/is a need for bits and
pieces that ByteBuffers don't fully address -- you cannot change the underlying
array (must rewrap) and you cannot fiddle with hash code, for example. I like
access to internals sometimes.

> Key: LUCENE-3590

> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 4.0
> Reporter: Robert Muir
> Priority: Blocker
>
> Setting this as blocker for 4.0, as this class is used in every API there.
> Currently this API is a little of a everything, sometimes its like a
> stringbuffer, it
> does numeric conversions, all kinds of stuff.
> We need this to be a ref to a byte[], nothing else. This other stuff can go
> somewhere else.
