Todd Lipcon commented on HDFS-1599: ----------------------------------- Most of the reflection in HBase has to do with version compatibility, not accessing private APIs. Adding a new API on HDFS doesn't solve the problem, really, since the whole reason for the reflection is to compile against old versions which don't have the new APIs :) > Umbrella Jira for Improving HBASE support in HDFS > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-1599 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1599 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Sanjay Radia > > Umbrella Jira for improved HBase support in HDFS -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
