Nick Dimiduk created HBASE-7692:
-----------------------------------
Summary: Add utility class to generate ordered byte[] serialization
Key: HBASE-7692
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7692
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Nick Dimiduk
Assignee: Nick Dimiduk
The current Bytes utility class works, but produces output that does not
maintain the native sort ordering of the input value. This results in, for
example, a negative value that does not necessarily sort before a positive
value. HBase should provide a canonical implementation of such a serialization
format so that third-parties can reliably build on top of HBase. This will
allow an implementation for HIVE-3634, HIVE-2599, or HIVE-2903 that is
compatible with similar features in Pig.
