Josh Elser commented on HBASE-15978: ------------------------------------ bq. Did not check the APILyzer, but we kind of have a similar thing. See the test that is new in HBASE-15174. We can extend that to ensure there is no non-HBase in the InterfaceAudience.Public methods. We might need to whitelist java collections, etc. Ah, cool. I didn't come across that one on my own. Having the annotations is definitely a perk for ya'll (whereas apilyzer has to rely on regex to define what is acceptable). Thanks for the pointer. > Netty API leaked into public API > -------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-15978 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-15978 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Client > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Reporter: Nick Dimiduk > Priority: Blocker > > Noticed out public > {{[client.Future|http://hbase.apache.org/apidocs/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/client/Future.html]}} > interface extends Netty, which means our public API is bound to a specific > Netty API and release. IIRC we were minimizing our public-facing surface area > and asserting ownership over the whole of it so as to control our > compatibility. Ie, we've done this with Protobuf as well. Not sure if this > has made it back to other branches. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
