Summary: Avoid Optional Anti-Patterns
Key: HBASE-23093
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-23093
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 3.0.0, 2.3.0, 1.6.0
Reporter: Viraj Jasani
Assignee: Viraj Jasani
Optional should be used as a return type only. It's a neat solution for
handling data that might not be present. We should avoid using Optional
Anti-Patterns i.e. using it as a field or parameter type due to these reasons:
1. Using Optional parameters causing conditional logic inside the methods is
not productive.
2. Packing an argument in an Optional is suboptimal for the compiler and does
an unnecessary wrapping.
