Ted Yu commented on HBASE-16668:
--------------------------------
{code}
[ERROR] Run 1:
TestInterfaceAlign.testAdminWithAsyncAdmin:62->lambda$testAdminWithAsyncAdmin$0:67
Admin method mergeRegionsSync should in AsyncAdmin too
{code}
[~zghaobac]:
Do you have suggestion on how the above should be addressed ?
I wonder if mergeRegionsSync should return CompletableFuture.
> Admin class should have a synchronous Admin#mergeRegions* method

> In trunk from HBASE-14552, we have deprecated {{void Admin#mergeRegions}} (in
> 1.x this was an asynchronous call) and replaced it with {{Future<Void>
> Admin#mergeRegionsAsync}} which is clearly async.
> This leaves us only with the async version.
> We should have an easy way to make {{mergeRegions}} or an equivalant behave
> synchronously.
> For normal java Futures, we could just call the future's {{get()}} method.
> Unforutnately, the future this method returns doesn't follow java Future
> convention and throws Unimplemented operation when a plain {{get()}} is
> called and makes the api harder to use and read. We could make this future
> act more normally, and have the timeout throw an InterruptedException.
> Alternately, we could expose a new method in {{Admin}} that behaves
> synchronously such as {{HBaseAdmin#mergeRegionsSync}}. The caveat here is
> that we shouldn't use the name {{#mergeRegions}} since it exists in 1.x with
> async semantics.
