Hi Edward!
Like Ryan said I think you are a little bit confused about where the
"versions" attribute applies.
It is a per family setting which means that for every family for every table
you can keep a different number
of versions. And when you scan you get that for every row
When you use the scan command in the shell you might get some results that
looks a little bit weird if you don't know what
you are looking at.
Try:
create 't1', {NAME => 'f1', VERSIONS => 1}
put 't1', 'r1', 'f1:qf1' ,'value1', 1
put 't1', 'r1', 'f1:qf1' ,'value2', 2
get 't1', 'r1', {COLUMN => 'f1:qf1'}
You should get something like:
timestamp=2, value=value2
Hope that it clears some stuff up for you.
Erik
