Anoop Sam John updated HBASE-10321:
-----------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Release Note: A new Codec CellCodecV2 is added which can do all the work of
CellCodec plus writing/reading Tags. CellCodec will not be able to handle tags.
When one wants to use CellCodec and tags need to use CellCodecV2.
Hadoop Flags: Reviewed
Status: Resolved (was: Patch Available)
Committed to Trunk and 0.98. Thanks for the reviews.
> CellCodec has broken the 96 client to 98 server compatibility

> Affects Versions: 0.98.0
> Reporter: Anoop Sam John
> Assignee: Anoop Sam John

> Fix For: 0.98.0, 0.99.0

> The write/read tags added in CellCodec has broken the 96 client to 98 server
> compatibility (and 98 client to 96 server)
> When 96 client CellCodec writes cell, it won't write tags part at all. But
> the server expects a tag part, at least a 0 tag length. This tag length read
> will make a read of some bytes from next cell!
> I suggest we can remove the tag part from CellCodec. This codec is not used
> by default and I don't think some one will change to CellCodec from the
> default KVCodec now. ..
> This makes tags not supported via CellCodec..Tag support can be added to
> CellCodec once we have Connection negotiation in place (?)
