Shrijeet Paliwal commented on HBASE-5041:
-----------------------------------------
@Ted, will add a unit test and upload a new one on top of trunk.
@Ram, thanks for commenting. Do you mean to say isRegionName should throw an
exception? I wanted to keep the semantic same as before - it tells weather the
name argument 'appears' to be a region name or not. When MetaReader.getRegion
returns null we know one thing for sure, it is not a region. Determining if its
a valid table is left to caller, depending on need.
Did you mean something else?
