Carter commented on HBASE-10934:
--------------------------------
I'll do the work.
Should we call the factory method be HConnection.getAdmin()? There is another
deprecated getAdmin method, but it takes arguments so this zero-argument method
wouldn't be a conflict. However, if we think it'll be confusing I can call it
the more laborious getHBaseAdmin().

> Key: HBASE-10934
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-10934
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Client
> Reporter: Carter
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 0.99.0

>
> As HBaseAdmin is essentially the administrative API, it would seem to follow
> Java best practices to provide an interface to access it instead of requiring
> applications to use the raw object.
> I am proposing (and would be happy to develop):
> * A new interface, HBaseAdminInterface, that captures the signatures of the
> API (HBaseAdmin will implement this interface)
> * A new method, HConnection.getHBaseAdmin(), that returns an instance of the
> interface
