Chao Shi commented on HBASE-8401:
---------------------------------
Hi folks,
We found this feature is helpful to our use case. So I'd like to help on this
ticket.
The current serialization code of ColumnPaginationFilter is as follow:
{code}
public void readFields(DataInput in) throws IOException
{
this.limit = in.readInt();
this.offset = in.readInt();
}
public void write(DataOutput out) throws IOException
{
out.writeInt(this.limit);
out.writeInt(this.offset);
}
{code}
If we can accept that old server does not work with a new client, we can use
this trick: serialize a negative integer number first, which could be an
indicator of using a new serialization format.
> Backport "HBASE-8284 Allow String Offset(s) in ColumnPaginationFilter for
> bookmark based pagination"
