Sean Busbey updated HBASE-8486: ------------------------------- Status: Open (was: Patch Available) +1 after fixing this one thing: {code} /** * <em>INTERNAL</em> Used by rest interface to access this metadata attribute - * which denotes if the table is a -ROOT- region or not. - */ - public static final String IS_ROOT = "IS_ROOT"; - private static final Bytes IS_ROOT_KEY - = new Bytes(Bytes.toBytes(IS_ROOT)); - - /** - * <em>INTERNAL</em> Used by rest interface to access this metadata attribute - * which denotes if it is a catalog table, either <code> hbase:meta </code> or <code> -ROOT- - * </code>. + * which denotes if it is a catalog table, either <code> hbase:meta </code>. */ public static final String IS_META = "IS_META"; {code} rather than relying on saying "INTERNAL" in the javadocs, we should annotate this with IA.Private. > IS_ROOT isnt needed in HTableDescriptor. > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-8486 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-8486 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Reporter: Elliott Clark > Assignee: Chia-Ping Tsai > Priority: Minor > Labels: patch > Fix For: 2.0.0 > > Attachments: HBASE-8486.v0.patch, hlogptr-v1.patch > > > HTableDescriptor has several vestigial references to the root region.
