----------------------------------------
Hi, Keith.
I am returning hbase-store back to returning a null in the test case of when
the column does not exist.
I find this -without further analysis- wrong because we are assuming that every
backend is a K-V, when nothing forces other types of backends that could return
a value when the corresponding value was not written, and this is a big issue
because the behavior will depend on the backend :\
About default values I will write some analysis about :) What you tell about
writing all values is very appreciated and seems right. I feel quite sad for
losing the "sparse" feature in HBase if we write all, but maybe that will be
the only solution, or not? I will inform when I write that article.
Thanks a lot.
