--------------------------------------
Summary: Tighten HFileLink api to enable non-snapshot other uses
Key: HBASE-12749
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12749
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Bug
Components: snapshots
Affects Versions: 2.0.0, 1.1.0
Reporter: Jonathan Hsieh
Assignee: Jonathan Hsieh
In HBASE-12332 we'd like to use the FileLink's IO redirecting powers but want
to be able to specify arbitrary alternate link paths and not be tied to the
SnapshotFileLink file pattern (aka, table=region-hfile).
To do this we need change the constructors and some internals so that it is
more generic. Along the way, we remove the FileStatus constructor arguments in
favor of Path's and reduce the number of ways to create HFileLinks, and tighten
up the scope privacy of many methods.
