Jean-Marc Spaggiari commented on HBASE-15233:
---------------------------------------------
I agree. I will try to find time to take a look if we can use that anywhere...
As you said, might be great.
For the coding, Rachel assigned this JIRA to her so I believe she is working on
that. I will let her do and I will search all Bytes.toBytes() usages so see if
we can use the re-use...
> Bytes.toBytes() methods should allow arrays to be re-used

> Key: HBASE-15233
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-15233
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: API
> Affects Versions: 1.1.3
> Reporter: Jean-Marc Spaggiari
> Assignee: Rachel Asher Silver
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: beginner
>
> Today we have this:
> {code}
> public static byte[] toBytes(long val) {
> byte [] b = new byte[8];
> for (int i = 7; i > 0; i--) {
> b[i] = (byte) val;
> val >>>= 8;
> }
> b[0] = (byte) val;
> return b;
> }
> {code}
> might be nice to also have this:
> {code}
> public static byte[] toBytes(long val, byte[] reuse) {
> for (int i = 7; i > 0; i--) {
> reuse[i] = (byte) val;
> val >>>= 8;
> }
> reuse[0] = (byte) val;
> return reuse;
> }
> {code}
> Same for all the other Bytes.toBytes() methods.
