Duo Zhang commented on HBASE-24492: ----------------------------------- OK, checked the code, there is a 'return true' at the last of the while(true) loop, and there is no continue statement in the middle, so I agree with you that the loop is useless. +1 on removing it. [~stack] I think this could go into all 2.x branches? Just a code clean. > ProtobufLogReader.readNext does not need looping > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HBASE-24492 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-24492 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Task > Reporter: Viraj Jasani > Assignee: Viraj Jasani > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 3.0.0-alpha-1, 2.4.0 > > > ProtobufLogReader.readNext is using infinite while loop for the whole method, > however it returns value or throws errors in single execution. while(true) > was part of initial code and with better improvements in the method, this > loop has not been removed yet. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
