Add Bytes.toBigDecimal and Bytes.toBytes(BigDecimal)
-----------------------------------------------------
Key: HBASE-3902
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3902
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: util
Affects Versions: 0.90.2, 0.90.1
Reporter: Vaibhav Puranik
Fix For: 0.90.4
Bytes.toBigDecimal and Bytes.toBytes were removed in 0.90.x. Please add it
back. We have data encoded using these methods. I don't think BigDecimal class
as getBytes/toBytes methods. And even if it had it, if the logic of encoding it
into bytes is different, it wouldn't work with the existing data. I am sure
that lot of people might face this issue.
I will submit the patch in a day or two.
