Add test to avoid unintentional reordering of items in HbaseObjectWritable
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HBASE-5455
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5455
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Test
Reporter: Michael Drzal
Priority: Minor
HbaseObjectWritable has a static initialization block that assigns ints to
various classes. The int is assigned by using a local variable that is
incremented after each use. If someone adds a line in the middle of the block,
this throws off everything after the change, and can break client
compatibility. There is already a comment to not add/remove lines at the
beginning of this block. It might make sense to have a test against a static
set of ids. If something gets changed unintentionally, it would at least fail
the tests. If the change was intentional, at the very least the test would
need to get updated, and it would be a conscious decision.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5204 contains the the fix for one
issue of this type.
