------------------------------
Do you have a fix Evert? (This might be a bit tricky to fix).
> ValueFilter is being evaluated before performing the column match
> -----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-3562
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3562
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: filters
> Affects Versions: 0.90.0
> Reporter: Evert Arckens
>
> When performing a Get operation where a both a column is specified and a
> ValueFilter, the ValueFilter is evaluated before making the column match as
> is indicated in the javadoc of Get.setFilter() : " {@link
> Filter#filterKeyValue(KeyValue)} is called AFTER all tests for ttl, column
> match, deletes and max versions have been run. "
> The is shown in the little test below, which uses a TestComparator extending
> a WritableByteArrayComparable.
> public void testFilter() throws Exception {
> byte[] cf = Bytes.toBytes("cf");
> byte[] row = Bytes.toBytes("row");
> byte[] col1 = Bytes.toBytes("col1");
> byte[] col2 = Bytes.toBytes("col2");
> Put put = new Put(row);
> put.add(cf, col1, new byte[]{(byte)1});
> put.add(cf, col2, new byte[]{(byte)2});
> table.put(put);
> Get get = new Get(row);
> get.addColumn(cf, col2); // We only want to retrieve col2
> TestComparator testComparator = new TestComparator();
> Filter filter = new ValueFilter(CompareOp.EQUAL, testComparator);
> get.setFilter(filter);
> Result result = table.get(get);
> }
> public class TestComparator extends WritableByteArrayComparable {
> /**
> * Nullary constructor, for Writable
> */
> public TestComparator() {
> super();
> }
>
> @Override
> public int compareTo(byte[] theirValue) {
> if (theirValue[0] == (byte)1) {
> // If the column match was done before evaluating the filter, we
> should never get here.
> throw new RuntimeException("I only expect (byte)2 in col2, not
> (byte)1 from col1");
> }
> if (theirValue[0] == (byte)2) {
> return 0;
> }
> else return 1;
> }
> }
> When only one column should be retrieved, this can be worked around by using
> a SingleColumnValueFilter instead of the ValueFilter.
