stack commented on HBASE-4459: ------------------------------ What is this about? {code} + } else if (Queue.class.isAssignableFrom(declClass)) { + Queue queue = (Queue)instanceObj; + int length = queue.size(); + out.writeInt(length); + Object obj; + for (int i = 0; i < length; i++) { + obj = queue.remove(); + writeObject(out, obj, obj.getClass(), conf); + } {code} Is it necessary to this patch? And this: {code} + } else if (Queue.class.isAssignableFrom(declaredClass)) { + int length = in.readInt(); + instance = new ConcurrentLinkedQueue(); + for (int i = 0; i < length; i++) { + ((Queue)instance).add(readObject(in, conf)); + } {code} Looks good Ram. Any chance of a test to prove it works the way it used to? > HbaseObjectWritable code is a byte, we will eventually run out of codes > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-4459 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4459 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Components: io > Reporter: Jonathan Gray > Assignee: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 0.92.0 > > Attachments: 4459.txt > > > There are about 90 classes/codes in HbaseObjectWritable currently and > Byte.MAX_VALUE is 127. In addition, anyone wanting to add custom classes but > not break compatibility might want to leave a gap before using codes and > that's difficult in such limited space. > Eventually we should get rid of this pattern that makes compatibility > difficult (better client/server protocol handshake) but we should probably at > least bump this to a short for 0.94. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
