Lars Francke commented on HBASE-13645:
--------------------------------------
Thanks! I'll do it that way. What about changing things that are marked as
{{@InterfaceAudience.Private}}? Like the methods in {{MasterCoprocessorHost}}.
Can I change them without going through deprecation?
> Rename *column methods in MasterObserver to *columnFamily

> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Lars Francke

> Priority: Minor
>
> This being an interface makes it a bit harder on implementors. It'd be easier
> with Java8 and default implementations.
> We could either
> # add new *columnFamily methods and deprecate the old ones or
> # rename the existing ones without doing a deprecation first.
> Implementors would need to change their code in each of those cases. But
> because we have the {{BaseMasterObserver}} and
> {{BaseMasterAndRegionObserver}} it'd make things easier for people using
> those classes if we go with option 1. So that's my preference.
> The plan would be to add these methods in 2.0.0 and remove the old ones in
> 3.0.0.
