Enis Soztutar commented on HADOOP-10383:
----------------------------------------
bq. It's a static check intended for auditing API compatibility, so adding the
extra information at runtime is avoidable. I don't know of any practical issues
with runtime retention, but it's not necessary, either.
In HBase but we are actually making use of it in runtime in unit tests so that
we make sure that we won't break BC (See HBASE-8546, HBASE-10462, and
HBASE-8275). I think in Hadoop we can do a similar test.
I'll commit this unless further comments.
