> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: shell
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0, 1.3.1
> Reporter: Ashu Pachauri
> Assignee: Chenxi Tong
> Labels: beginner

>
> When converting row keys to a printable string representation, Bytes class
> considers SPACE as a printable character, so it prints it out as it is. So,
> it's quite possible that a row key has a space at the end.
> When specifying split points in a file, the row keys are not quoted and the
> shell wrapper "admin.rb" strips any whitespace off the row keys:
> {code}
> File.foreach(splits_file) do |line|
> arg[SPLITS].push(line.strip())
> end
> {code}
> The correct approach is to use "chomp()" instead of "strip()" to just strip
> off carriage returns and newlines. We should assume that the hbase user is
> either using split points printed out by hbase itself (which will not have
> tabs) or is diligent enough to not use tabs at the end of a split point.
> What's worse is that it goes undetected and will result in undesirable split
> points.
