stack commented on HBASE-19298: ------------------------------- bq. Is it the consensus in our community? If so, I'm fine to close this issue as Won't Fix. [~chia7712] Our Sean is gone till Feb FYI as of today (For the best of reasons -- smile). I'd be good w/ CellScanner being public. It is a dumb interface that is pervasive; e.g. Result implements it. On the patch, whats up w/ the ExtendedCellScanner. Why we need it? Thanks. > CellScanner should be declared as IA.Public > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-19298 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-19298 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Task > Reporter: Chia-Ping Tsai > Assignee: Chia-Ping Tsai > Fix For: 2.0.0-beta-1 > > Attachments: HBASE-19298.v0.patch > > > User can create the {{CellScanner}} via IA.Public {{CellUtil}}, hence > {{CellScanner}} should be IA.Public. However, the {{CellScanner}} is used in > the server code base so making {{CellScanner}} IA.Public may flaw our HBASE > in the future. In my opinion, we should introduce the {{ExtendedCellScanner}} > to replace the {{CellScanner}} for server code. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
