Chia-Ping Tsai updated HBASE-19437:
-----------------------------------
Description:
But the Table#append and #increment can handle the null result...that is an
inconsistent behavior for user.
I have noticed two scenarios that server will return null result to user.
# postAppend/postIncrement return null
# mutation.isReturnResults() is false and
preIncrementAfterRowLock/preAppendAfterRowLock doesn't return null
We should wrap the null to empty result on server side. CP user should throw
Exception rather than return null if they intend to say something is broken.
was:
The null from postAppend/postIncrement sparks inconsistent behavior. The
Table#append and #increment can handle the null result but the batch operation
throws IllegalStateException.
We should wrap the null from postAppend/postIncrement to empty result since cp
user should throw IOException rather than return null if they intend to say
something is broken.
> Batch operation can't handle the null result for Append/Increment
