Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-7233: -------------------------------------- You are right. I was looking at Mutate, which (for Put/Delete/Append) also serializes KVs, but there it does it column by column. Sigh. Re: Custom PB. Specifically what I meant is something that can serialize a "Cell" that is composed of four separate byte[]'s (row/cf/qual/val) and then de-serialize as a single byte[], and vice versa (without copying the bytes - other than copying them into network buffers where necessary) Maybe something can be done with union types or extensions. (Ironically with Writables this would be a trivial problem to solve) Cell[In|Out]PutStream would use PBs? If not, we're where we started :) > Remove Writable Interface from KeyValue > --------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-7233 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7233 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: stack > Assignee: stack > Priority: Blocker > Attachments: 7233.txt, 7233-v2.txt > > > Undo KeyValue being a Writable. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
