stack commented on HBASE-13387:
-------------------------------
Ok. Writeup helps (formatting is all wacky). It could do with an edit but it
is lists out the fruit of our back and forth on the two patches posted. Great
(I have reservations about an Interface per server-side feature but for now,
lets go this route... I think it means less change). Looking forward to v3.
> Add ByteBufferedCell an extension to Cell

> This came in btw the discussion abt the parent Jira and recently Stack added
> as a comment on the E2E patch on the parent Jira.
> The idea is to add a new Interface 'ByteBufferedCell' in which we can add
> new buffer based getter APIs and getters for position in components in BB.
> We will keep this interface @InterfaceAudience.Private. When the Cell is
> backed by a DBB, we can create an Object implementing this new interface.
> The Comparators has to be aware abt this new Cell extension and has to use
> the BB based APIs rather than getXXXArray(). Also give util APIs in CellUtil
> to abstract the checks for new Cell type. (Like matchingXXX APIs,
> getValueAs<type> APIs etc)
