stack updated HBASE-6142: ------------------------- Tags: noo > Javadoc in some Filters ambiguous > --------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-6142 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6142 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Components: documentation > Affects Versions: 0.92.2, 0.96.0, 0.94.1 > Reporter: Joep Rottinghuis > Priority: Minor > > The javadoc on some of the filter is somewhat confusing. > The main Filter interface has methods that behave like a sieve; when > filterRowKey returns true, that means that the row is filtered _out_ (not > included). > Many of the Filter implementations work the other way around. When the > condition is met the value passes (ie, the row is returned). > Most Filters make it clear when a values passes (passing through the filter > meaning the values are returned from the scan). > Some are less clear in light of how the Filter interface works: > WhileMatchFilter and SingleColumnValueFilter are examples. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
