Hi Anoop, thanks, got it. So it is like a unsighed short = a char ?
And what about the max length of tags in bytes ? 66635 (2^16-1) ?

> In the Cell interface, getTagsLength() returns a int
> But in the KeyValue implementation, tags length is a short. Also in ExtendedCell, when explaining the KeyValue format, tags length is stated to be 2 bytes
> Any plan to update Cell interface to make getTagsLength() returns a short ?
