Hello again, Doesn't anyone know how I can do this. The problem is: When you insert something from the shell, it supposes it's a string and then does a Bytes.toBytes conversion on the string and stores it in hbase. So how can I tell the shell that the thing I'm entering isn't a string? How I can put a value with a long format inside hbase, through the shell.
If you need to know, I want to pre-split my table. I can't do it through java code, because I've installed a security library on hbase, with which I can create encrypted tables. It adds a "securecreate" command to the shell, from which I can create encrypted tables, but I can't create encrypted tables with the java code. So I'm forced to use the shell to create the table, and I want to pre-split my table with long values, because my row keys are in the long format. Please help, I really need this.
