ChiaPing Tsai created HBASE-16346: ------------------------------------- Summary: The addColumn() method of INCREMENT does not accept null qualifier Key: HBASE-16346 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-16346 Project: HBase Issue Type: Bug Reporter: ChiaPing Tsai Priority: Trivial
{code:title=Increment.java|borderStyle=solid} // Is it necessary to prevent the null qualifier public Increment addColumn(byte [] family, byte [] qualifier, long amount) { if (family == null) { throw new IllegalArgumentException("family cannot be null"); } if (qualifier == null) { throw new IllegalArgumentException("qualifier cannot be null"); } List<Cell> list = getCellList(family); KeyValue kv = createPutKeyValue(family, qualifier, ts, Bytes.toBytes(amount)); list.add(kv); familyMap.put(CellUtil.cloneFamily(kv), list); return this; } {code} I use the add(Cell) method to add the cell with null qualifier and it works fine. It seems to me that the check should be removed any command? thanks -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
