Doğacan Güney commented on HBASE-2036:
--------------------------------------

If you are going to remove hashCode(), then it can be done just like in nutch. 
Add a static HBaseConfiguration.create() method that creates a Configuration 
object, reads hbase-*.xml as well then returns the Configuration object. 

> Use Configuration instead of HBaseConfiguration

> HBaseConfiguration extends Configuration but does not add any functionality 
> to it. The only function is hashCode() which really should be refactored into 
> Hadoop Configuration. 
> I think in all the places(especially in the client side)  HBase methods and 
> classes should accept Configuration rather than HBaseConfiguration. The 
> creation of the configuration with the right files (hbase-site and 
> hbase-default) should not be encapsulated in a private method, but in a 
> public static one. 
> The issues has arisen in our nutch+hbase patch for which we include both 
> nutch configuration and hbase configurations. Moreover people may want to 
> include separate project-specific configuration files to their configurations 
> without the need to be dependent on the HBaseConfiguration.
