Ted Yu commented on HBASE-7128:
-------------------------------
In HConstants:
{code}
+ /** When we encode strings, we always specify UTF8 encoding */
+ public static final Charset UTF8_CHARSET = Bytes.UTF8_CHARSET;
{code}
HConstants and Bytes classes are both in hbase-common
Can UTF8_CHARSET be removed from HConstants ?
Patch looks good.
> Reduced annoying catch clauses of UnsupportedEncodingException that is never
> thrown because of UTF-8

> There are some codes that catch UnsupportedEncodingException, and log or
> ignore it because Java always supports UTF-8 (see the javadoc of Charset).
> The catch clauses are annoying, and they should be replaced by methods of
> Bytes.
