[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5304?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Lars Hofhansl updated HBASE-5304: --------------------------------- Attachment: 5304-v4.txt Here's an entirely different patch that used RegionSplitPolicy instead. (Seems RegionSplitPolicy needs to be documented more prominently). Consider the original patch abandoned. Only two changes: 1. Allow classes outside of org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver to extend RegionSplitPolicy or ConstantSizeRegionSplitPolicy 2. Deal correctly with forced splits. Please have a look. Thanks. > Pluggable split key policy > -------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-5304 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5304 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: regionserver > Reporter: Lars Hofhansl > Assignee: Lars Hofhansl > Fix For: 0.94.0 > > Attachments: 5304-v4.txt, 5304.txt > > > We need a way to specify custom policies to determine split keys. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
