ChiaPing Tsai created HBASE-16346:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: The addColumn() method of INCREMENT does not accept null qualifier
                 Key: HBASE-16346
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-16346
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: ChiaPing Tsai
            Priority: Trivial


{code:title=Increment.java|borderStyle=solid}
 // Is it necessary to prevent the null qualifier
  public Increment addColumn(byte [] family, byte [] qualifier, long amount) {
    if (family == null) {
      throw new IllegalArgumentException("family cannot be null");
    }
    if (qualifier == null) {
      throw new IllegalArgumentException("qualifier cannot be null");
    }
    List<Cell> list = getCellList(family);
    KeyValue kv = createPutKeyValue(family, qualifier, ts, Bytes.toBytes(amount));
    list.add(kv);
    familyMap.put(CellUtil.cloneFamily(kv), list);
    return this;
  }
{code}

I use the add(Cell) method to add the cell with null qualifier and it works fine.
It seems to me that the check should be removed
any command? thanks
