Anoop Sam John commented on HBASE-18361:
----------------------------------------
All parts 1 to 6 are parts of key in one way or other. So only those are
considered for equality check. Just consider like Map.. U have key and value.
The key is what decides equality. It is same way. Value is not considered for
any equals check or ordering.
> CellComparator compare function should compare cell's value along with other
> attributes

> CellComparator.compare(Cell a, Cell b) should compare a and b's value as well.
> If we create two cells as
> byte [] row = Bytes.toBytes("row");
> byte [] value = Bytes.toBytes("value");
> byte [] value1 = Bytes.toBytes("value1");
> Cell c1 = CellUtil.createCell(row, value);
> Cell c2 = CellUtil.createCell(row, value1);
> And compare them using CellComparator.compare(c1, c2,true) , it returns 0 i.e
> it matches them while they are different.CellComparator compares each
> attribute of cell but value.
