--------------------------------------
Summary: remove deprecation from ZooKeeperInstance(String, String)
constructor
Key: ACCUMULO-2167
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-2167
Project: Accumulo
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Keith Turner
Assignee: Keith Turner
Fix For: 1.6.0
In 1.6.0-SNAPSHOT the ZooKeeperInstance(String, String) constructor was
deprecated. It does not seem there is a compelling reason to do this. Below
are some reasons I can think of not to do it.
* In 1.6.0 you still need to know an instance name and zookeepers to create a
ZookeeperInstance programmatically. So its not like its reason for being is no
longer valid.
* Its a nice conveince method for new code written against accumulo (its
shorter than {{new
ClientConfiguration()..withInstance(instanceName).withZkHosts(zooKeepers)}}
* Most existing code using the API probably uses it. Why annoy users
unnecessarily?
* There is no maintenance burden for keeping the method
I think all of the other constructors that were deprecated should stay
deprecated. Its likely those constructors are not used, and if their
functionality is needed then ClientConfiguration can be used.
