Summary: [compat 1-2] HCD remove and removeConfiguration change
return type
Key: HBASE-18691
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-18691
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Sub-task
Components: API
Reporter: stack
Change made in HBASE-18008. Asking [~chia7712] if ok to undo.
Here is complaint from JACC:
{code}
hbase-client-1.2.6.jar, HColumnDescriptor.class
package org.apache.hadoop.hbase
[−] HColumnDescriptor.remove ( byte[ ] key ) : void 1
org/apache/hadoop/hbase/HColumnDescriptor.remove:([B)V
Change Effect
1 Return value type has been changed from void to HColumnDescriptor.
This method has been removed because the return type is part of the method
signature.
[−] HColumnDescriptor.removeConfiguration ( String key ) : void 1
org/apache/hadoop/hbase/HColumnDescriptor.removeConfiguration:(Ljava/lang/String;)V
Change Effect
1 Return value type has been changed from void to HColumnDescriptor.
This method has been removed because the return type is part of the method
signature.
{code}
Binary breaking but not src breaking. See
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3589946/retrofitting-void-methods-to-return-its-argument-to-facilitate-fluency-breaking
for good discussion. Probably not a prob. but just in case and if not really
needed, will purge.
