stack commented on HBASE-4805:
------------------------------
bq. I don't think I follow why this.connection should be set to null.
So we don't double close if HTable#close is called twice (not sure what would
happen if we did call close on HConnection twice).
Regards:
{code}
+ * Use this with caution, your application <strong>must</strong> manage the
+ * connection's life cycle explicitly.
{code}
'Life-cycle' sounds exotic; do you mean the caller is responsible for calling
close on the created HConnection?
If so, amend the javadoc on commit.

> From some internal discussions at Salesforce we concluded that we need better
> control over the resources (mostly threads) consumed by HTable when used in a
> AppServer with many client threads.
> Since HTable is not thread safe, the only options are cache them (in a custom
> thread local or using HTablePool) or to create them on-demand.
> I propose a simple change: Add a new constructor to HTable that takes an
> optional ExecutorService and HConnection instance. That would make HTable a
> pretty lightweight object and we would manage the ES and HC separately.
> I'll upload a patch a soon to get some feedback.
