> In Cell interface

> (1) We have the following comment for "qualifier"
> {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.

> But getQualifierLength() returns int
> {code}
> int getQualifierLength();
> {code}
> (2) We have the following comment for "value"
> {code}
> /**
> * Contiguous raw bytes that may start at any index in the containing
> array. Max length is
> * Integer.MAX_VALUE which is 2,147,483,648 bytes.
> * @return The array containing the value bytes.
