Java Thrift Question: how to filter Integer values?

[Harry Chen]

My program talks to a remote HBase via Thrift (v1). I want to scan a table
with "SingleColumnValueFilter".

http://hbase.apache.org/0.94/book/thrift.html

*Question: *

When creating a TScan object, what's the correct syntax to use for
"filterString" if I want to match an Integer column value?

*Failed Test:*

hbase(main):024:0> scan 'apitest'
ROW
COLUMN+CELL

 qq:k1                                               column=cf1:m_boolean,
timestamp=1458436830752,
value=\xFF

 qq:k1                                               column=cf1:m_double,
timestamp=1458436830752,
value=@\x08\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00

 qq:k1                                               column=cf1:m_int,
timestamp=1458436830752,
value=\x00\x00\x00\x01

 qq:k1                                               column=cf1:m_long,
timestamp=1458436830752,
value=\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x02

 qq:k1                                               column=cf1:m_string,
timestamp=1458436830752, value=4

My program can match a String column value (i.e., "cf1:m_string") with the
following implementation:

   byte[] sf = Bytes.toBytes("(SingleColumnValueFilter 'cf1', 'm_string', =
, 'binary:4')");
   ByteBuffer sf_b = ByteBuffer.wrap(sf);
   TScan tscan = new TScan();
   // ... other tscan init impl omitted
   tscan.setFilterString(sf_b);

However, none of the following works when I want to match an Integer value
(e.g., "cf1:m_int", which store java.lang.Integer = 1).

Option 1:

   String sf = "(SingleColumnValueFilter 'cf1', 'm_int, = , 'binary:1')"

Option 2:

   String sf = "(SingleColumnValueFilter 'cf1', 'm_int', = , 1)"

Option 3:
   String x = Bytes.toStringFromBinary(Bytes.toBytes(1))
   String sf = "(SingleColumnValueFilter 'cf1', 'm_int', = , " + x + ")"

   // filter string: (SingleColumnValueFilter 'cf1', 'm_int', = ,
\x00\x00\x00\x01)

Option 4:
  String x = "'binary:" + Bytes.toStringFromBinary(Bytes.toBytes(1)) + "'"
  String sf = "(SingleColumnValueFilter 'cf1', 'm_int', = , " + x + ")"

  // filter string: (SingleColumnValueFilter 'cf1', 'm_int', = ,
'binary:\x00\x00\x00\x01')

I thought Option 4 should work, but it didn't, since it works in HBase
Shell.

hbase(main):026:0> scan 'apitest', {FILTER => "SingleColumnValueFilter
('cf1','m_int',=,'binary:\x00\x00\x00\x01',true,false)"}
