Josh Elser commented on ACCUMULO-1136:
--------------------------------------
Applied patch in r1452005 and added a note about the VFS classloader
bq. In the documentation that mentions lib/ext, its probably worth mentioning
the ability to load iterators from a URL.
[~kturner] I assume you meant the VFS classloader? I know it's off by default,
but was any documentation written for it? Just the basics: what it uses, how
does it work with Accumulo, and how to configure it.
> Lack of information regarding `setiter` and `config` for SKVI configuration

> In terms of the documentation, it would be great to augment the Table
> Configuration section of the user manual. Iterators are central to Accumulo's
> functionality so it would aid users to see an entire iterator life cycle:
> * Develop iterator by extending...
> * Install iterator as jar to lib/ext
> * Run as in a client (fragment is shown)
> * Set via shell (setiter, config for options)
> There are hints to using config for existing filters but not how to configure
> custom iterator code. For example, installing custom iterator code for
> non-scan contexts is unclear.
