Edward Capriolo commented on HIVE-3246:
---------------------------------------
byte [] is not a primitive. I have no issue with the change but there must be a
reason this was done. Likely a performance issue.
> java primitive type for binary datatype should be byte[]

> PrimitiveObjectInspector.getPrimitiveJavaObject is supposed to return a java
> object. But in case of binary datatype, it returns ByteArrayRef (not java
> standard type). The suitable java object for it would be byte[].
