ramkrishna.s.vasudevan commented on HBASE-10800: ------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the interest over this JIRA and sorry for the delayed update on this. Missed the ping over here. The idea of this JIRA was to make Cells usage everywhere including the comparators. I have now deferred this activity because if you see in KVcomparator and its usage through out the code it is using Cells to compare. So now changing KVComparator to CellComparator is only a name change in most of the places. But still there are this Bloom filter and index usages that uses RawComparators which is not based on Cell. For the current work for offheap HBASE-11425 we have introduced new APIS that work on ByteBuffers and some new comparator APIs that work on BBs. Once that is in place we could move all the Comparators to Cell based and then work on this JIRA actively. Any comments/suggestions are welcome. > Use CellComparator instead of KVComparator > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: HBASE-10800 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-10800 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan > Assignee: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan > Fix For: 1.1.0 > > Attachments: HBASE-10800_1.patch, HBASE-10800_2.patch > > -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
