Marcio Silva created ACCUMULO-776:
-------------------------------------
Summary: TimestampFilter should serialize start and end as longs
in the IteratorSetting
Key: ACCUMULO-776
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-776
Project: Accumulo
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Marcio Silva
Priority: Minor
Although the TimestampFilter supports using longs to set the start or end
timestamp, it formats them as strings using SimpleDateFormat when storing or
retrieving them in the IteratorSetting.
This results in exceptions when the timestamps being used aren't able to be
formatted as _yyyyMMddHHmmssz_. For example, try
{{setEnd(253402300800001,true)}}
Instead, {{setStart()}} and {{setEnd()}} could just as easily use
{{String.valueOf(long i)}} to store the values, and {{init()}} could retrieve
them using {{Long.valueOf(String s)}}.
