## org.apache.hadoop.io.file.tfile
Class ByteArray

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.hadoop.io.file.tfile.ByteArray

All Implemented Interfaces:
  RawComparable

    public final class ByteArray

extends Object
implements RawComparable

Adaptor class to wrap byte-array backed objects (including java byte array) as RawComparable objects.

Constructor Summary
`ByteArray(byte[] buffer)` Wrap a whole byte array as a RawComparable.
`ByteArray(byte[] buffer, int offset, int len)` Wrap a partial byte array as a RawComparable.
`ByteArray(BytesWritable other)` Constructing a ByteArray from a `BytesWritable`.

Method Summary
`byte[]` | `buffer()` Get the underlying byte array.
`int` | `offset()` Get the offset of the first byte in the byte array.
`int` | `size()` Get the size of the byte range in the byte array.
