Sean Busbey commented on ACCUMULO-3657:
---------------------------------------
I had presumed those particular bits just weren't public. Do we only allow
referencing public API bits within the public API?
> API Specification is incomplete

> While working on [fluo-365|https://github.com/fluo-io/fluo/issues/365] and
> trying to create an [example Accumulo API checkstyle
> rule|https://gist.github.com/keith-turner/ee0deafe88fa9f5bc43f] I discovered
> that API specification in the README is incomplete. The API specification
> does not include the following classes (which are referenced by classes that
> are declared to be in public API).
> * o.a.a.core.security.ColumnVisibility (used by public methods in Mutation)
> * o.a.a.core.security.Authorizations (used by public methods in Connector)
> * o.a.a.core.data.ByteSequence (used by public methods in Key)
> * o.a.a.core.data.PartialKey (used by public methods in Key)
> * o.a.a.core.data.ColumnUpdate (used by public methods in Mutation)
> This list is not exhausitive, I did not analyze all methods in public API.
> These are just the issue I ran into while trying to apply a checkstyle rule
> to Fluo.
> After correcting the README and website, it would be nice to add a
> recommended checkstyle rule to the web site.
