[jira] [Created] (ACCUMULO-1051) Authorizations has inconsistent serialization

Christopher Tubbs created ACCUMULO-1051:
-------------------------------------------

             Summary: Authorizations has inconsistent serialization
                 Key: ACCUMULO-1051
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-1051
             Project: Accumulo
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: client
            Reporter: Christopher Tubbs
            Assignee: Christopher Tubbs
             Fix For: 1.5.0


The same set of authorizations may not serialize to the same value each time, if specified in a different order when constructed (like new Authorizations("a", "b") and new Authorizations("b", "a")), because serialization reproducibility depends on the insert order in the underlying HashSet.

So, one could get the following to happen:
{code:java}
true == auths1.equals(auths2) && !auths1.serialize().equals(auths2.serialize());
{code}
