Ricky Saltzer updated HBASE-6972:
---------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 0.96.0
Affects Version/s: 0.96.0
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
This patch makes the column optional when calling deleteall. This allows for
users to delete an entire row, rather than specifying each column they want to
delete. This was originally how the command worked, but somewhere down the line
it was changed.
I've tested this in standalone and it seems to work.

> It appears that the shell does not allow users to delete a row without
> specifying a column (deleteall). It looks like the deleteall.rb used to
> pre-define column as nil, making it optional.
> I've created a patch and confirmed it to be working in standalone mode, I
> will upload it shortly.
