Ted Yu commented on HBASE-8496:
-------------------------------
On page 6:
bq. In case of per HFile
The sentence seems to be incomplete.
bq. once we close the file we add the Meta data saying tagpresent = true and
avg_tag_len = 0.
avg_tag_len = 0 would indicate that there is no tag present. Why do we need two
flags (tagpresent and avg_tag_len) ?
Later compaction is mentioned where tagpresent is changed to false. But we
should be able to achieve this at the time of flush, right ?
{code}
byte[] tagArray = kv.getTagsArray();
Tag decodeTag = KeyValueUtil.decodeTag(tagArray);
{code}
In the above sample, I would expect decodeTag() to return more than one Tag.
Would all Tags in the KeyValue be returned to filterKeyValue() ? I think it
would be better if Tag.Type.Visibility is passed to decodeTag() so that only
visibility Tag is returned.
