Ted Yu commented on HBASE-4032:
-------------------------------
HBASE-451 is an incompatible change.
I wonder why HRegionInfo#getTableDesc should return a meaningful table
descriptor after the change where HRegionInfo no longer keeps reference to
table descriptor.
Unit test code has been retrofitted to not depend on HRegionInfo#getTableDesc.
I doubt user would write code that explicitly uses HRegionInfo#getTableDesc.
> HBASE-451 improperly breaks public API HRegionInfo#getTableDesc

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4032
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Andrew Purtell
> Assignee: stack
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 0.92.0
>
>
> After HBASE-451, HRegionInfo#getTableDesc has been modified to always return
> {{null}}.
> One immediate effect is broken unit tests.
> That aside, it is not in the spirit of deprecation to actually break the
> method until after the deprecation cycle, it's a bug.
