Hudson commented on HBASE-12979: -------------------------------- FAILURE: Integrated in HBase-TRUNK #6099 (See [https://builds.apache.org/job/HBase-TRUNK/6099/]) HBASE-12979 Use setters instead of return values for handing back statistics from HRegion methods (jyates: rev 75148385ee5b2065992aea19a810436196576f20) * hbase-server/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/regionserver/RSRpcServices.java * hbase-server/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/regionserver/HRegion.java > Use setters instead of return values for handing back statistics from HRegion > methods > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-12979 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12979 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.98.10 > Reporter: Andrew Purtell > Assignee: Jesse Yates > Labels: phoenix > Fix For: 2.0.0, 1.0.1, 1.1.0, 0.98.10.1 > > Attachments: hbase-12979-v0-master.patch > > > In HBASE-5162 (and backports such as HBASE-12729) we modified some HRegion > methods to return statistics for consumption by callers. The statistics are > ultimately passed back to the client as load feedback. > [~lhofhansl] thinks handing back this information as return values from > HRegion methods is a weird mix of concerns. This also produced a difficult to > anticipate binary compatibility issue with Phoenix. There was no compile time > issue because the code of course was not structured to assign from a method > returning void, yet the method signature changes so the JVM cannot resolve it > if older Phoenix binaries are installed into a 0.98.10 release. Let's change > the HRegion methods back to returning 'void' and use setters instead. > Officially we don't support use of HRegion (HBASE-12566) but we do not need > to go out of our way to break things (smile) so I would also like to make a > patch release containing just this change to help out our sister project. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
