Jonathan Hsieh commented on HBASE-7208: --------------------------------------- This looks like a big patch but most of it is mechanical due to a renames. Highlights of what has been done: * Removed old error handling framework, many renames (HBaseException -> ExtenralException, failOnError -> rethrowException) * Moved the body of snapshot functions into the SnapshotManager. Better encapsulation and makes exception layering much clearer (HMaster throws SerivceExceptions, SnapshotManager throws IO and HBaseSnapshot exn). * Added cancel method to SnapshotSentinel * Refactored DisabledTableSnapshotHandler into TakeSnapshotHandler (This is the online-scaffolding patch essentially) * Converted *Task to Callable<Void> instead of Runnable so that Exceptions can be thrown normally if called in line and centralized use of the ExternalException infra to only where necessary. Compared to previous version -- there are no generics, fewer classes, more straightforward errorhandling, and better encapsulation of snapshotting methods within the SnapshotManager. > Transition Offline Snapshots to ExternalExceptions > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-7208 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7208 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: snapshots > Affects Versions: hbase-6055 > Reporter: Jonathan Hsieh > Assignee: Jonathan Hsieh > Fix For: hbase-6055 > > Attachments: hbase-7208.v6.patch > > > This will eliminate the old errorhandling code, and update existing code to > use the ExternalException mechanisms. > I'd like this to be done before attempt merging to trunk. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
