------------------------------------
Summary: Javadoc: Document that HBaseAdmin.flush(...) is
synchronous
Key: HBASE-9266
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9266
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Lars Hofhansl
Priority: Trivial
Fix For: 0.98.0, 0.94.12, 0.95.3
Currently the Javadoc in HBaseAdmin.flush(...) says that this is an
asynchronous operation. Looking at the, however, it is in fact not.
Having this as a synchronous operation open ups some use cases we're interested
in. For example doing some ingest via the high level API with WAL disabled and
then issue a flush through the HBaseAdmin. When the flush succeeded we know the
data is securely in HBase.
(This should work even with intermediary splits, as they also force a flush,
but that needs to be verified as well.
So this is just for a trivial Javadoc change.
