stack commented on HBASE-4616:
------------------------------
You can't remove them w/o deprecating them first.
On your other comments:
What about my proposal that you narrow scope of this patch and attach the
priority issue, removing get closestorbefore, and do uuid/md5'ing in another
issue?
'!' is not legal table char. Here is the function that tests legal characters:
http://hbase.apache.org/xref/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/HTableDescriptor.html#278
Anything less than '-', the lowest allowable table character should do. ','
qualifies (just about) though it would have to be the character to designate
the last region and we'd need another delimiter for non-end-regions... most
chars are problematic but could use a '+' (I think) or a '#' -- but this'd be
too ugly... need to think of something better.
Agree on not doing int for table name; problematic when replicating not to mind
the complexity it adds (as you outline above).
I like your pros and cons table.
