Hi all, If I can not close the connection to HBase using HTable, after the object was set as null . Whether the resource of this connection will be released ?
The code as below; public class MyMap extends MapReduceBase implements Mapper { private HTable connection ; public MyMap(){ connection=new HTable(new HBaseConfiguration(), new Text("HBaseTest")); } public void map(...){ ...................... connection=null; // I couldn't use connection.close; } }
