stack commented on HBASE-12260:
-------------------------------
Hmm. On the thread on the dev list I state the patten I adopt doing this
MasterServices refactor and even ask if we should prefix all CP class with a
CP. That part of the email didn't get any commentary. My guess is that the
implications are not commonly understood (and I didn't do a good enough job
explaining).
> MasterServices needs a short-back-and-sides; pare-back exposure of internals
> and IA.Private classes

> A major issue with MasterServices is the MasterCoprocessorEnvironment exposes
> this class even though MasterServices is tagged with
> @InterfaceAudience.Private
> This means that the entire internals of the HMaster is essentially part of
> the coprocessor API. Many of the classes returned by the MasterServices API
> are highly internal, extremely powerful, and subject to constant change.
> Perhaps a new API to replace MasterServices that is use-case focused, and
> justified based on real world co-processors would suit things better.
