[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-3444) Bytes.toBytesBinary and Bytes.toStringBinary() should be reversible

["Simon Kelly (Commented) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3444?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13245089#comment-13245089 ] 

Simon Kelly commented on HBASE-3444:
------------------------------------

Also results in java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException in Bytes.toBytesBinary if the byte[] ends in a '\'

{code}
byte[] bytes = new byte[]{'a','b','c','\'};
Bytes.toBytesBinary(Bytes.toStringBinary(bytes));
{code}
                
> Bytes.toBytesBinary and Bytes.toStringBinary()  should be reversible

> Bytes.toStringBinary() doesn't escape \.
> Otherwise the transformation isn't reversible
> byte[] a = {'\', 'x' , '0', '0'}
> Bytes.toBytesBinary(Bytes.toStringBinary(a)) won't be equal to a
