------------------------------------
Summary: Allow Text to be read with a known length
Key: HADOOP-10855
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10855
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: io
Affects Versions: 2.6.0
Reporter: Todd Lipcon
Assignee: Todd Lipcon
Priority: Minor
For the native task work (MAPREDUCE-2841) it is useful to be able to store
strings in a different fashion than the default (varint-prefixed)
serialization. We should provide a "read" method in Text which takes an
already-known length to support this use case while still providing Text
objects back to the user.
