Clint Morgan commented on HBASE-605:
------------------------------------
Unfortunately I need the NavigableSet to get a descending iterator. SortedSet
does not provide this functionality. Could use some 3rd party data structure
but, ...
I don't get the IOException compile error, thats a java6 change too...
For the time being, I'm inclined to just leave this as a java6 patch and wait
until java6 adoption to apply it. Works for me now, and I need to spend time on
other things.
> allow scanners which return results ordred by a column value

> We would like to be able to scan though tables with results ordered by
> (deserialized) column values. This approach maintains an in-memory sorted set
> for each ordered-by column in each HStore. This allows us to iterate through
> the keys in column order, and to random reads on the key to get the full row.
> Without the index, then we have to scan through all the rows to get the first
> result ordered by a column. Thus, when R is the number of rows in a table, N
> is the number of ordered-by rows we want, and R >> N we can save a lot of
> work by not doing the full table scan.
