You can try negating the ReturnCode from filterKeyValue() (at the root of FilterList):
abstract public ReturnCode filterKeyValue(final Cell v) throws IOException; INCLUDE -> SKIP SKIP -> INCLUDE Alternatively, you can use De Morgan's law to transfer the condition: NOT (a = '123' AND b = '456') becomes (NOT a = '123') OR (b = '456') On Thu, Dec 29, 2016 at 12:56 PM, Carl M <soloning...@hotmail.com> wrote: > Hi guys > > > I'm trying to implement some kind of NOT filter in Hbase, but don't know > if possible, I'm playing with FilterIfMissing and FilterList.Operator but > without luck. > > > I know how to return rows not having a specific column, but I mean > something like returning rows NOT fullfilling a condition, where condition > could be not only a SingleColumnValueFilter but a combined condition with > FilterList.
