             Summary: Useless code in VectorTrimmer
                 Key: DRILL-5488
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-5488
             Project: Apache Drill
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.10.0
            Reporter: Paul Rogers
            Priority: Trivial


Consider this code in a generated fixed-width vector, such as UInt4Vector:

{code}
    @Override
    public void setValueCount(int valueCount) {
      ...
      final int idx = (VALUE_WIDTH * valueCount);
      ...
      VectorTrimmer.trim(data, idx);
      data.writerIndex(valueCount * VALUE_WIDTH);
    }
{code}

Consider the {{trim()}} method:

{code}
public class VectorTrimmer {
  ...
  public static void trim(ByteBuf data, int idx) {
    data.writerIndex(idx);
    if (data instanceof DrillBuf) {
      // data.capacity(idx);
      data.writerIndex(idx);
    }
  }
}
{code}

This method is called {{trim}}, but it actually sets the writer index in the buffer (though we never use that index.) Since all buffers we use are {{DrillBuf}}, the if-statement is a no-op: we simply set the writer index twice.

It seems this code can simply be discarded: it is called from only two places; neither of which end up using the writer index.
