[jira] [Created] (LUCENE-5864) Split BytesRef into BytesRef and BytesRefBuilder

Adrien Grand created LUCENE-5864:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Split BytesRef into BytesRef and BytesRefBuilder
                 Key: LUCENE-5864
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5864
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Adrien Grand
            Assignee: Adrien Grand
             Fix For: 4.10


Follow-up of LUCENE-5836.

The fact that BytesRef (and CharsRef, IntsRef, LongsRef) can be used as either pointers to a section of a byte[] or as buffers raises issues. The idea would be to keep BytesRef but remove all the buffer methods like copyBytes, grow, etc. and add a new class BytesRefBuilder that wraps a byte[] and a length (but no offset), has grow/copyBytes/copyChars methods and the ability to build BytesRef instances.
