Michael Berman commented on ACCUMULO-1471: ------------------------------------------ So this iterator shouldn't respect the interface's contract because there's a particular consumer that might want it to behave differently? It seems like the scenario you describe would be better handled by having MultiIterator not pass its CFs through into the inner seek (perhaps optionally), so it can do the filter in one pass higher up in cases where that would be more efficient. > SortedMapIterator.seek() doesn't respect columnFamilies > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ACCUMULO-1471 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-1471 > Project: Accumulo > Issue Type: Bug > Components: client > Affects Versions: 1.4.3, 1.5.0 > Reporter: Michael Berman > Assignee: Michael Berman > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.5.1, 1.6.0 > > > If you specify columnFamilies in a seek() on a SortedMapIterator, it will > happily return results from other column families.
