Dinesh S. Atreya commented on HDFS-9607:
----------------------------------------
What I meant to say is that users can exercise the liberty to copy a portion of
the array and fill it with *_spaces_* for example; if users want to
update/replace
{noformat}
"Hello HDFS"
{noformat}
with
{noformat}
"Hi HDFS"
{noformat}
they can do so using {{fill}} and {{copyOf}} methods from
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/Arrays.html.
