Jim Kellerman commented on HBASE-880:
-------------------------------------
Actually, get(RowOperation) should return Cell[] as get does currently.
There is no need to return a RowResult since we already know the row.
getRow(RowOperation) could return HBaseMapWritable<byte[], Cell> even though it
currently returns RowResult.
> Improve the current client API by creating new container classes

> 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.
