stack commented on HBASE-8273:
------------------------------
[~lhofhansl] My point is that the 'this' is not specified. I am tired of
inspecific issues. Non-specificity gives leeway for them to be filled w/ crap.
This issue description points at mailing list conversation (one you have to go
find yourself, no link is provided) and while a synopsis is supplied, it is NOT
a synopsis of what went on on the mailing list; it is the name of a JIRA (?).
There follows a sentence that we are supposed to infer relates some how to the
preceding text, that talks of NoSuchMethodError. Then look at the subject of
this issue? Should they return void?
Awful.

> See discussion on dev@ mailing list, entitled 'Does compatibility between
> versions also mean binary compatibility?'
> Synopsis from that thread:

> method signatures by changing "void" to "HColumnDescriptor" so it' not
> the same methods anymore.

> java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:
> org.apache.hadoop.hbase.HColumnDescriptor.setMaxVersions(I)V
