Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-9912: -------------------------------------- Also, this is not really possible. I tried this a while ago and failed. Even blogged about that failure: http://hadoop-hbase.blogspot.com/2012/01/scanning-in-hbase.html (In a nutshell we'd break seeking, since HBase would have no way of knowing how many KVs before the seek key it would have to seek in order to determine whether KVs following the seek key are marked for deletion). > Need to delete a row based on partial rowkey in hbase ... Pls provide query > for that > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-9912 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9912 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: ranjini > Priority: Critical > -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
