Jean-Daniel Cryans commented on HBASE-880: ------------------------------------------ An argument against having Batch* like Jim proposed, the RowOperation serialization would have to pass the name of the class over the wire. > Improve the current client API by creating new container classes > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-880 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-880 > Project: Hadoop HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: client > Reporter: Jean-Daniel Cryans > Fix For: 0.19.0 > > > The current API does not scale very well. For each new feature, we have to > add many methods to take care of all the overloads. Also, the need to batch > row operations (gets, inserts, deletes) implies that we have to manage some > "entities" like we are able to do with BatchUpdate but not with the other > operations. The RowLock should be an attribute of such an entity. > The scope of this jira is only to replace current API with another > feature-compatible one, other methods will be added in other issues. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
