[jira] [Updated] (LANG-778) Add ByteArrayUtils

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-778?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Joerg Schaible updated LANG-778:
--------------------------------

           Description: ByteArrayUtils will currently contain only conversion methods between several types and an array of bytes. The functionality is similar to DataInput and DataOutput, but without the indirection of IO streams. As special type the utility class supports also conversion between UUID and byte array (memory layout as described in RFC 4122).  (was: A UUID represents 16 bytes. In some situation (e.g. using DBs that do not have native support for the type UUID) it is necessary to use directly the bytes. The JDK does not support the transformation from UUID to bytes and back, therefore I'd like to add UUIDUtils with the two proposed methods.)
    Remaining Estimate: 8h  (was: 4h)
     Original Estimate: 8h  (was: 4h)
               Summary: Add ByteArrayUtils  (was: Add UUIDUtils.toByteArray and UUIDUtils.fromByteArray)
