Chia-Ping Tsai commented on HBASE-19092:
----------------------------------------
bq. So he was of the opinion that since CPs are not using ExtendedCell if we
add these APIs in ExtendedCell it would mean that we need to do a typecast and
that is not straightforward.
Indeed, it is not straightforward but it is the best solution now I think.
bq. Instead have some static methods only. So shall we add getTags(Cell) to the
Tag interface only? Currently Tag is only for specific Tags but lets change it
now?
The {{getTags(Cell)}} is in {{PrivateCellUtil}}. Do you mean moving the method
to {{Tag}}? Typecasting the {{Cell}} to {{ExtendedCell}} is enough for cp user
if they want to get {{Tag}} from {{Cell}}.
> Make Tag IA.LimitedPrivate and expose for CPs

> We need to make tags as LimitedPrivate as some use cases are trying to use
> tags like timeline server. The same topic was discussed in dev@ and also in
> HBASE-18995.
> Shall we target this for beta1 - cc [~saint....@gmail.com].
> So once we do this all related Util methods and APIs should also move to
> LimitedPrivate Util classes.
