Anoop Sam John reopened HBASE-13998: ------------------------------------ Reopening to commit an addendum to fix an induced javadoc warn. > Remove CellComparator#compareRows(byte[] left, int loffset, int llength, > byte[] right, int roffset, int rlength) > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-13998 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-13998 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Anoop Sam John > Assignee: Anoop Sam John > Fix For: 2.0.0 > > Attachments: HBASE-13998.patch, HBASE-13998_addendum.patch > > > A public API in CellComparator which takes old style byte[], offset, length > alone is not correct. CellComparator supposed to compare cell(s). At least > one side param has to be a cell.. This is the agreement we discussed in > HBASE-10800. Still we could not remove the above one method because it was > getting used from multiple places. Now most of the usage is removed. This > jira aims at removing it fully and replace the usage with other APIs. > Note: The CellComparator is added in 2.0 only so removing the public API is > not creating any BC issue. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
