Sebb commented on LANG-778:
---------------------------
Could perhaps consider a method such as
int ByteUtils.longToByteArray(long input, byte[] buffer, int offset)
This could then be used twice in the UUID class, as well as being used in
byte[] ByteUtils.longToByteArray(long input).
Just a thought.
It seems a shame not to be able to use the long=>ba conversion elsewhere.
> Add UUIDUtils.toByteArray and UUIDUtils.fromByteArray

> A UUID represents 16 bytes. In some situation (e.g. using DBs that do not
> have native support for the type UUID) it is necessary to use directly the
> bytes. The JDK does not support the transformation from UUID to bytes and
> back, therefore I'd like to add UUIDUtils with the two proposed methods.
