Motivation:
It would be useful to support the Java `Map` interface in our primitive maps.
Modifications:
Renamed current methods to "pXXX", where p is short for "primitive". Made the template for all primitive maps extend the appropriate Map interface.
Result:
Fixes#3970
Motivation:
The ByteString class currently assumes the underlying array will be a complete representation of data. This is limiting as it does not allow a subsection of another array to be used. The forces copy operations to take place to compensate for the lack of API support.
Modifications:
- add arrayOffset method to ByteString
- modify all ByteString and AsciiString methods that loop over or index into the underlying array to use this offset
- update all code that uses ByteString.array to ensure it accounts for the offset
- add unit tests to test the implementation respects the offset
Result:
ByteString and AsciiString can represent a sub region of a byte[].
Motivation:
Currently we have IntObjectMap/HashMap, but it will be useful to support other primitive-based maps.
Modifications:
Moved the code int the current maps to template files and run Groovy code from common/pom.xml to apply the templates.
Result:
Autogeneration of int and char-based hash maps.
