------------------------------------

             Summary: Improve Bytes to accept byte buffers which don't allow us 
to directly access thier backed arrays
                 Key: HBASE-7137
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7137
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Hiroshi Ikeda
            Priority: Minor


Inside HBase, it seems that there is the implicit assumption that byte buffers 
have backed arrays and are not read-only, and we can freely call 
ByteBuffer.array() and arrayOffset() without runtime exceptions.

But some classes, including Bytes, are supposed to be used by users from 
outside of HBase, and we should think the possibility that methods receive byte 
buffers which don't hold the assumption.
