Josh Elser commented on ACCUMULO-2177: -------------------------------------- FirstEntryInRowIterator would be a nice starting point here -- would be easy to (re)implement a FirstEntryInRowIterator given a FirstNEntriesInRowIterator. > A scan time iterator to return the first N entries encountered for each row > in the input range. (FirstNEntriesInRowIterator) > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ACCUMULO-2177 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-2177 > Project: Accumulo > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: client > Reporter: Corey J. Nolet > Priority: Minor > Labels: iterators > > I have found this iterator extremely useful when it is important to run a > batch scan over a bunch of different ranges but guarantee that a predefined > number of results get returned for each row. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
