In that sense, they are targeted at general > HBase users (who may run but not develop coprocessors), as opposed to > coprocessor developers who want to extend HBase. > The coprocessor endpoint API has also remained much more stable than the > coprocessor Observer interfaces, which tend to change along with HBase > internals. So there should not be much difficulty in supporting these > methods as part of the public API. > I think we should drop the {{@InterfaceAudience.Private}} annotation on these > methods and support them as part of the public {{HTableInterface}}. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
