The old method returned a String, but since a secret can be binary data this type is not suited. Users who now that their secret is in fact a String, can use cast with: Secret secret = conn.secretLookupByUUIDString("uuuuuuuid"); String value = new String(secret.getValue());While it makes perfect sense to switch the jna layer to byte array as otherwise we can't guarantee functional operation in all cases, I aslo think we should not break compatibility, since Java doesn't allow overload with different value type, it just mean we need a new method name.
Yes, I get that. We don't want to break anything here.
So I'm simply renaming your method name to "getByteValue" but keeping getValue() implemented with the cast you suggest, that seems to work for me
I tested it and verified it's working for me with cephx authentication keys. Wido

I will reword the commit message slightly too. I'm sorry that this mean you will have to rename getValue() to getByteValue() but I prefer that than risking to break an unknown amount of existing users ...
