             Summary: HTableDescriptor equals method fails is results are 
returned in a different order
                 Key: HBASE-7579
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7579
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Admin
            Reporter: Aleksandr Shulman
            Priority: Minor


HTableDescriptor's compareTo function compares a set of HColumnDescriptors 
against another set of HColumnDescriptors. It iterates through both, relying on 
the fact that they will be in the same order.

In my testing, I may have seen this issue come up, so I decided to fix it.

It's a straightforward fix. I convert the sets into a hashset for O(1) lookups 
(at least in theory), then I check that all items in the first set are found in 
the second.

Since the sizes are the same, we know that if all elements showed up in the 
second set, then they must be equal.
