----------------------------------
Hi [~anoop.hbase]
When implementing ExtendedCell interface for IndividualBytesFieldCell, to
override the following function
{code}
/**
* Write the given Cell into the given buf's offset.
* @param buf The buffer where to write the Cell.
* @param offset The offset within buffer, to write the Cell.
*/
void write(byte[] buf, int offset);
{code}
I found KeyValue#createByteArray() (as follow) can be re-used
{code}
static byte [] createByteArray(final byte [] row, final int roffset,
final int rlength, final byte [] family, final int foffset, int flength,
final byte [] qualifier, final int qoffset, int qlength,
final long timestamp, final Type type,
final byte [] value, final int voffset,
int vlength, byte[] tags, int tagsOffset, int tagsLength) {
{code}
So I need to check with you
1. If ExtendedCell#write() (listed above) needs to write the Cell in KeyValue
format,
2. If the answer for 1 is yes, then may I propose to make
KeyValue#createByteArray() to package-private so that its logic can be used in
other ExtendedCell implementations?

> In the Put API, we have addImmutable()

> /**

> * that the underlying arrays won't change. It's intended
> * for usage internal HBase to and for advanced client applications.

> public Put addImmutable(byte [] family, byte [] qualifier, byte [] value)
> {code}
> But in the implementation, the family, qualifier and value are still being
> copied locally to create kv.
> Hopefully we should provide an API that truly uses immutable family,
> qualifier and value.
