stack commented on HBASE-5548:
------------------------------
Looks good.
Does stuff work as it used to after this patch goes in? Can you do the old
dumb:
get 'tablename', 'yadda', 'yadda'....
still?
On get_table, should it just be table? 'status' dumps out status, 'version',
dumps out 'version'. Maybe it should stay get_table, because it returns
something you can catch into a variable?
Oh, this is nice:
{code}
+ hbase> t1 = create 't1', 'f1'
{code}
How do i add a filter? Is it the same old: t.scan, {STARTROW => 'xyz'} or
something?
Patch is looking good I think. Introduces a nice bit of functionality...

> Currently, all the commands that operate on a table in the shell first have
> to take the table as name as input.
> There are two main considerations:
> * It is annoying to have to write the table name every time, when you should
> just be able to get a reference to a table
> * the current implementation is very wasteful - it creates a new HTable for
> each call (but reuses the connection since it uses the same configuration)
> We should be able to get a handle to a single HTable and then operate on that.
