Sorry, CF must not be fake, I suppose (because its region coprocessor)

put.add(REAL_COLUMN_FAMILY, "flag".getBytes(),"true".getBytes());

'flag' is the fake column. You have to process these columns in your 
Coprocessor and extract them.

Add fake cf + column to your Put operation

Put put = new Put(row);

put.addFamily("COMMAND".getBytes(), "flag".getBytes(),"true".getBytes());

Subject: passing a parameter to an observer coprocessor

Hi all,

   I want to add some dynamic behavior to my observer cp, say:

postPut(){

if(flag) {do function1()};
else {do function2()}

}

  Is there a way to dynamically change the value of flag? One Feasible
approaches is to change a value in table descriptor, but then I need to
restart the table. Is there a way to pass a parameter using an API, say,
from an endpoint, to an observer? Another way to ask this question is, is
there a shared variable between an observer, and an endpoint, in a common
table?

Thanks,
Wei
