Christopher Tubbs updated ACCUMULO-2445:
----------------------------------------
Issue Type: Sub-task (was: Improvement)
Parent: ACCUMULO-2589
> API should use collection-of-bytes representation instead of Text
> -----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ACCUMULO-2445
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-2445
> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: client
> Affects Versions: 1.5.1, 1.6.0
> Reporter: Sean Busbey
> Fix For: 1.7.0
>
>
> Right now we use Text as a container for bytes rather than as a UTF8
> representation of a string. This results in some gymnastics when people wish
> to use byte sequences that are not valid UTF8 (see ACCUMULO-2437).
> We should use some representation of plain bytes (ideally byte[] or
> ByteBuffer) and deprecate the use of Text so we can remove it later.
