Jim Kellerman commented on HADOOP-2041:
---------------------------------------
Just to clarify the request, what I think you are proposing is adding:
public void put(long lockid, Text column, Writable val)
but you are not proposing to overload any of the get(...) methods or
HScannerInterface.next
to return a Writable.
Overloading put is easy. Overloading get and next is hard because we currently
do not store any type information for the value. All values are of type byte[]
If that is correct, then yes, we can add this in 0.16.0
> Add convenience put method that takes writable
