Sean Busbey created ACCUMULO-2796:
-------------------------------------
Summary: user manual doesn't mention ordering of iterator
application
Key: ACCUMULO-2796
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-2796
Project: Accumulo
Issue Type: Bug
Components: docs
Affects Versions: 1.6.0, 1.5.1, 1.5.0
Reporter: Sean Busbey
Priority: Critical
Fix For: 1.5.2, 1.6.1, 1.7.0
The user manual section on iterators never gives an explanation of the order of
application. ([ref
1.5|http://accumulo.apache.org/1.5/accumulo_user_manual.html#_iterators], [ref
1.6|http://accumulo.apache.org/1.6/accumulo_user_manual.html#_iterators])
The only place we mention this is in a parenthetical on [the javadoc for
IteratorSetting#setPriority()|http://accumulo.apache.org/1.6/apidocs/org/apache/accumulo/core/client/IteratorSetting.html#setPriority(int)]:
{quote}
(system iterators are always applied first, then user-configured iterators,
lowest priority first)
{quote}
The user manual should include this explanation along with what qualifies an
iterator as "system" vs "user-configured".
