Hi, I wrote a Custom Comparator that implements WritableByteArrayComparable and used it in SingleColumnValueFilter as follows:
new SingleColumnValueFilter(family, column,CompareFilter.CompareOp.EQUAL,customComparator); The code seems to be stuck in an endless loop calling the write method over and over. Any idea why this could be happening? The same behavior occurs when I copy the exact code of SubstringComparator and use it with a different name. Am using Hbase version 0.20.1. I also noticed that the SubstringComparator works fine when used as is. Thanks, Karthik Manimaran.
