Xiang Li updated HBASE-16363:
-----------------------------
    Description: 
In Cell interface (hbase-common/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/Cell.java)
In the comment, we have
{code}
/**
   * Contiguous raw bytes that may start at any index in the containing array. 
Max length is
   * Short.MAX_VALUE which is 32,767 bytes.
   * @return The array containing the qualifier bytes.
   */
{code}
The length of the qualifier is a short
But getQualifierLength() returns int
{code}
int getQualifierLength();
{code}

which one is correct?
