Support inclusive scans
-----------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-2299
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2299
             Project: Hadoop
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: contrib/hbase
            Reporter: Bryan Duxbury
            Priority: Trivial


The existing scanner interface excludes the end key from the result range. If 
you actually want to do an inclusive scan for some reason, you would currently 
have to guess at the key immediately after the end key, which is a shoddy 
solution. 

A new stoprow filter could be created that stops at the end key but also 
returns it. Then, you could supply an extra parameter to getScanner to say you 
want an inclusive scan.
