Carter commented on HBASE-11657:
--------------------------------
Please take another look.
For the managed connection check, I'm just following the same pattern for the
#getTable(TableName) factory method to keep it consistent.
> Put HTable region methods in an interface

> Most of the HTable methods are now abstracted by HTableInterface, with the
> notable exception of the following methods that pertain to region metadata:
> {code}
> HRegionLocation getRegionLocation(final String row)
> HRegionLocation getRegionLocation(final byte [] row)
> HRegionLocation getRegionLocation(final byte [] row, boolean reload)
> byte [][] getStartKeys()
> byte[][] getEndKeys()
> Pair<byte[][],byte[][]> getStartEndKeys()
> void clearRegionCache()
> {code}
> and a default scope method which maybe should be bundled with the others:
> {code}
> List<RegionLocations> listRegionLocations()
> {code}
> Since the consensus seems to be that these would muddy HTableInterface with
> non-core functionality, where should it go? MapReduce looks up the region
> boundaries, so it needs to be exposed somewhere.
> Let me throw out a straw man to start the conversation. I propose:
> {code}
> org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.HRegionInterface
> {code}
> Have HTable implement this interface. Also add these methods to HConnection:
> {code}
> HRegionInterface getTableRegion(TableName tableName)
> HRegionInterface getTableRegion(TableName tableName, ExecutorService pool)
> {code}
> [~stack], [~ndimiduk], [~enis], thoughts?
