             Summary: Consider changing timeline annotations to be a 
map<string, string>
                 Key: HTRACE-32
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTRACE-32
             Project: HTrace
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Colin Patrick McCabe


We should consider changing the timeline annotations in Span.java to be a 
map<string, string> rather than a map<byte[], byte[]>.  It's very inconvenient 
to deal with byte arrays here, and every use-case we have currently puts string 
data into these fields.  One example is that you cannot look up fields in the 
map, since the map<byte[], byte[]> compares by byte array object equality 
(useless unless you have the original key array object you inserted).  It's 
also questionable if we could put non-string data in this map at all, since we 
are serializing them to JSON strings, which can't handle arbitrary byte strings.
