Gustavo Anatoly commented on HBASE-7106: ---------------------------------------- Hi, Liyin. About this issue, Jimmy Xiang fixed null qualifier [HBASE-7130|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7130], and the jdk7 profile on maven is opened yet to be implemented? > [89-fb] Fix the NPE in unit tests for JDK7 > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: HBASE-7106 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7106 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Liyin Tang > Priority: Trivial > > In JDK7, it will throw out NPE if put a NULL into a TreeSet. And in the unit > tests, user can add a NULL as qualifier into the family map for GET or SCAN. > So we shall do the followings: > 1) Make sure the semantics of NULL column qualifier is equal to that of the > EMPYT_BYTE_ARRAY column qualifier. > 2) An easy fix is to use the EMPYT_BYTE_ARRAY qualifier to replace NULL > qualifier in the family map for the GET or SCAN objects, and everything else > shall be backward compatible. > 3) Add a jdk option in the pom.xml (Assuming user installed the fb packaged > jdk) > eg: mvn test -Dtest=TestFromClientSide -Pjdk7 -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
