Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-2001:
---------------------------------------

bq. Are you using HTableInterface for your "table" implementation?

No, but I should you are right.

bq. Critical I'd say is that coprocessors are testable without having to spin 
up servers.

It would depend on the coprocessor but for "builtins" like filters we can 
manage that.

Of course to test the framework there needs to be a (sub)suite of tests which 
run against a live region server.

> "Support arbitrary code that runs run next to each region in table. As 
> regions split and move, coprocessor code should automatically  move also."
> Use classloader which looks on HDFS.
> Associate a list of classes to load with each table. Put this in HRI so it 
> inherits from table but can be changed on a per region basis (so then those 
> region specific changes can inherited by daughters). 
> Not completely arbitrary code, should require implementation of an interface 
> with callbacks for:
> * Open
> * Close
> * Split
> * Compact
> * (Multi)get and scanner next()
> * (Multi)put
> * (Multi)delete
> Add method to HRegionInterface for invoking coprocessor methods and 
> retrieving results.  
> Add methods in o.a.h.h.regionserver or subpackage which implement convenience 
> functions for coprocessor methods and consistent/controlled access to 
> internals: store access, threading, persistent and ephemeral state, scratch 
> storage, etc.
