William Slacum commented on ACCUMULO-1738:
------------------------------------------
I'm always in favor of removing/deprecating code, especially since the use case
seems to be purely for testing convenience. We should probably at least write a
utility method to do {{String->ArrayByteSequence}} since existing clients might
use it.
> ArrayByteSequence string conversion use platform default encoding

> Key: ACCUMULO-1738
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-1738
> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Bill Havanki
> Priority: Trivial
> Labels: newbie
>
> The class {{org.apache.accumulo.core.data.ArrayByteSequence}} has a
> constructor that accepts a {{String}}, as well as a {{toString()}} method.
> Both use the platform default encoding to convert from characters to bytes
> and back, which can cause problems. They should explicitly use
> {{Constants.UTF8}} for conversion to ensure consistency across platforms.
