Elliot Miller commented on HBASE-24874:
---------------------------------------

One of the things that fascinated me about this bug is that it only *affects 
the JDK 11 builds*. The JDK 8 builds work just fine. Hopefully, I'll get the 
chance to look into this more, but my initial guess is that this effect is a 
result of "JEP 181: Nest-Based Access Control," added in JDK 11 (See the 
release notes: 
[https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/jdk-11-relnote.html#JDK-8010319).]

Anyway, there are two changes that need to be made:

1. We need a new way to accept coprocessor spec strings from the alter command. 
I suggested a solution on this issue relating to CoprocessorDescriptors: 
[HBASE-20119|https://issues.apache.org/]
 2. We need a new way to print table attributes in the describe command. This 
is easy.

> hbase-shell should not use ModifiableTableDescriptor directly

> HBASE-20819 prepared us for HBase 3.x by removing usages of the deprecated 
> HTableDescriptor and HColumnDescriptor classes from the shell. However, it 
> did use two methods from the ModifiableTableDescriptor, which was only public 
> for compatibility/migration and was marked with 
> {{@InterfaceAudience.Private}}. When {{ModifiableTableDescriptor}} was made 
> private last week by HBASE-24507 it broke two hbase-shell commands 
> (*describe* and *alter* when used to set a coprocessor) that were using 
> methods from {{ModifiableTableDescriptor}} (these methods are not present on 
> the general {{TableDescriptor}} interface).
> This story will remove the two references in hbase-shell to methods on the 
> now-private {{ModifiableTableDescriptor}} class and will find appropriate 
> replacements for the calls.
