Ted Yu commented on HBASE-3506:
-------------------------------
Nice work Joey.
I think we should catch exception(s) coming out of deleteTable() so that an
exception in the middle of the operation doesn't stop other tables from being
dropped:
{code}
+ public void deleteTables(Pattern pattern) throws IOException {
+ for (HTableDescriptor table : listTables(pattern)) {
+ deleteTable(table.getName());
+ }
+ }
{code}
Also, it would be nice to change the return type to HTableDescriptor[] which
contain the table(s) that might have not been deleted.
Similar comment applies to disableTables().
> Allow table name expressed in regex in drop, disable, enable operations
