Hi folks, I'm new to HBase client java API and using 0.98.4-hadoop2 version.
I need to check if a column family does exit even if it does not have any rows in it. The problem is that HTableDescriptor.hasFamily returns false for an empty column family so if I try to create it I will have an exception stating that the CF is already existing. Any help will be more than appreciated. Regard, -- Mehdi BEN HAJ ABBES
