Shrijeet Paliwal commented on HBASE-6468: ----------------------------------------- I do not know enough about filters, so help me here. If we go about modifying FirstKeyOnlyFilter, how does one handle a case when rowcounter was invoked with something like this : "rowcounter table f1:c1 f2:c2" . Create two instances of FirstKeyOnlyFilter (one for each pair)? > RowCounter may return incorrect result if column name is specified in command > line > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-6468 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6468 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.90.5 > Reporter: Shrijeet Paliwal > Attachments: > 0001-HBASE-6468-RowCounter-may-return-incorrect-result.patch > > > The RowCounter use FirstKeyOnlyFilter regardless of whether or not the > command line argument specified a column family (or family:qualifier). > In case when no qualifier was specified as argument, the scan will > give correct result.
