[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-1611) Have shell output binary hex-encoded rather than octal-encoded

Alex Newman commented on HBASE-1611:
------------------------------------

I am a  bit confused about this bug. When I print strings, it seems to be trying to use hexadecimal, but every-once in a while, it just falls apart.

For instance the following works fine
\x00\x00\x00\x00 column=on:\x00\x00\x1A\x1F, timestamp=1318533963647, value=\x00\x00\x00\x00

but
 \x00\x00\x00\x00 column=on:\x00\x00\x1A$, timestamp=1318533963647, value=\x00\x00\x00\x00
falls apart, for some reason.

Is this what you are discussing?

> Native Ruby String dump and inspect output unprintables in octal.  Don't seem to be able to change that fact.  Figure way to do them as hex to match binaries in UI.
