Another way to force this new unique String instance with its own private char[] is to use a StringBuilder and append onto it the ref name. This shouldn't be a warning for FindBugs, but it would accomplish the same goal of producing 1 clean copy, with no extra transient temporary array. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.
