Bryan Duxbury commented on HBASE-639:
-------------------------------------
It sounds like what you really want is HTable.getMetadata(). There's an issue
open to make this method not suck in trunk: HBASE-632. Should we close this as
dupe or wontfix?
> add HBaseAdmin.getTableDescriptor function

>
> Currently, to get a HTableDescriptor for a particular table, I have to call
> listTables() and then loop through the HTableDescriptor[]. It would be nice
> if the API just had a function to give me a single HTableDescriptor, since I
> already know the name of the table I'm interested in. Alternately,
> listTables could return a map of String -> HTableDescriptor, keyed off table
> name.
