---------------------------------------

Deal. I don't think i'll get to it today but certainly before Monday, tomorrow 
likely.

> Add endRow parameter to HClient#obtainScanner

>                 Key: HADOOP-1439
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1439
>             Project: Hadoop
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: contrib/hbase
>            Reporter: stack
>            Assignee: stack
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Currently the HClient#obtainScanner looks like this:
> {code}
> public synchronized HScannerInterface obtainScanner(Text[] columns, Text 
> startRow) throws IOException;
> {code}
> Add an overload that allows specification of endRow:
> {code}
> public synchronized HScannerInterface obtainScanner(Text[] columns, Text 
> startRow, Text endRow) throws IOException;
> {code}
> Use Case: Table contains the whole web.  Client just wants to scan google's 
> pages.  Currently, client could cut off the scanner as soon as the row key 
> leaves the google domain but cleaner if {{HScannerInterface#next()}} returns 
> false
