stack commented on HADOOP-1375: ------------------------------- My version of the patch, hadoop1375-v12.patch, removed parser subdir, renamed the javacc file as HBaseShell.jj from QueryParser.jj, and output all generated classes to a subdir named 'generated'. These changes are not included in your latest patch. Also there is a regression where main class is again named HbaseShell rather than HBaseShell. If I type in a non-command, the shell still exits: {code} HBase > show; Exception in thread "main" java.lang. Error: Missing return statement in function at org.apache.hadoop.hbase.shell.parser.QueryParser.parse(QueryParser.java:137) at org.apache.hadoop.hbase.shell.HbaseShell.main(HbaseShell.java:65) {code} Can you catch these exceptions and instead output a nice message, something like 'Unknown command: Type 'help' for usage' or some such thing? The 'show' command does not seem to always work. E.g. type 'show scan;'. I tried to use the scan command on the root table and got an exception: Type 'scan --ROOT--;'. > a simple parser for hbase. > -------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-1375 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1375 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: contrib/hbase > Environment: All environments > Reporter: udanax > Priority: Minor > Attachments: hadoop1375-v12.patch, jline-0.9.91.jar, patch.txt, > patch.txt, patch.txt, patch.txt, patch.txt, patch.txt, patch.txt, patch.txt, > patch.txt > > > http://wiki.apache.org/lucene-hadoop/HbaseShell (work in progress) > HBase Shell is developed to achieve the following goals. > * Generic Monitoring Function > * A Simplified Import/Export/Migrate Functionality Between different data > sources (Hadoop, HBase) > * A Simplified processing of a logical data model > * A Simplified algebraic operations > (Parallel Numerical Analysis by abstracting/numericalizing points, lines, > or plane data across multiple maps in HBase.) > {code} > [# [EMAIL PROTECTED] ./bin/hadoop jar ./build/hadoop-hbase > org.apache.hadoop.hbase.shell.HbaseShell > Hbase > help; > blah blah... > Hbase > create webtable > --> columnfamilies('anchors', 'language') limit=3; > Hbase > set webtable values('anchors:http://www.udanax.org/','opensource') > where row="http://www.hadoop.co.kr"; > Hbase > scan webtable where row="http://www.hadoop.co.kr"; > blah blah... > Hbase > set webtable values('language:kr','euc-kr') where > row="http://www.hadoop.co.kr"; > Hbase > scan webtable where row="http://www.hadoop.co.kr" and > column="language:kr"; > blah blah... > Hbase > scan webtable; > Hbase > exit > [# [EMAIL PROTECTED] > {code} -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
