Varun Sharma commented on HBASE-5257:
-------------------------------------
Actually, I did not have the ColumnCountGetFilter changes in the previous
patches - so I removed the earlier patches and made the changes and now added
back with the new changes...
> Allow INCLUDE_AND_NEXT_COL in filters and use it in ColumnPaginationFilter

> There are various usecases and filter types where evaluating the filter
> before version are handled either do not make sense, or make filter handling
> more complicated.
> Also see this comment in ScanQueryMatcher:
> {code}
> /**
> * Filters should be checked before checking column trackers. If we do
> * otherwise, as was previously being done, ColumnTracker may increment
> its
> * counter for even that KV which may be discarded later on by Filter.
> This
> * would lead to incorrect results in certain cases.
> */
> {code}
> So we had Filters after the column trackers (which do the version checking),
> and then moved it.
> Should be at the discretion of the Filter.
> Could either add a new method to FilterBase (maybe excludeVersions() or
> something). Or have a new Filter wrapper (like WhileMatchFilter), that should
> only be used as outmost filter and indicates the same (maybe
> ExcludeVersionsFilter).
> See latest comments on HBASE-5229 for motivation.
