Ted Yu commented on HBASE-8504:
-------------------------------

The new API may look like this ?
{code}
   * @param startKey Starting row in range, inclusive
   * @param endKey Ending row in range, exclusive
   * @param reload true to reload information or false to use cached information
   * @return A list of HRegionLocations corresponding to the regions that
   * contain the specified range
   * @throws IOException if a remote or network exception occurs
   */
  public List<HRegionLocation> getRegionsInRange(final byte [] startKey,
    final byte [] endKey, boolean reload) throws IOException {
{code}
                
> HTable.getRegionsInRange() should provide a non-cached API

> getRegionsInRange() calls getRegionLocation() without reloading it. It will 
> return wrong result if the cache is outdated due to region split. If the cost 
> of always reloading isn't significant, we should consider doing that by 
> default. Otherwise, let's have an API for getRegionsInRange() that forces a 
> reload.
