George P. Stathis commented on PIG-1680:
----------------------------------------
Absolutely, it makes sense. I uploaded the patch as a starting point. It woud
be nice if someone other than me verified that it works for them as well.
As for the shim layer, if there is an example of how others have done it in the
past, I can spend some time taking a look and adapting the patch to it.
> Pig 0.8 HBaseStorage may not against HBase 0.89

> Key: PIG-1680
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1680
> Project: Pig
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: impl
> Affects Versions: 0.8.0
> Reporter: George P. Stathis
> Fix For: 0.8.0
>
> Attachments: apply-PIG-1680-patch.sh, pig-hbase-0.89.SNAPSHOT.patch

>
> HBaseStorage is currently coded against the hbase 0.20.6 API. The hbase 0.89
> API deprecates some methods and outright removes some others which causes
> HBaseStorage to no longer compile.
> It is unclear whether one can run an HBase 0.20.6 client against a running
> 0.89 hbase instance. In my experience, it does not work. Therefore,
> HBaseStorage has to be compiled against 0.89.
> Attached is a proposed patch to make 0.8.0 trunk compatible with hbase 0.89
> as well as a script to help automate the upgrade.
