Tim Sell updated HBASE-1285:
----------------------------

    Attachment: HBase-1285v1.patch

This patch adds the compact and majorCompact functions to the thrift api.
I think the thrift api will need of another overhaul soon. but for now this works.
I didn't patch the generated files. I'll make a new patch tomorrow.

In a related issue I think we should generate the thrift src files in an ant target and not include them in the source code. But this would require that users recompiling hbase have thrift installed. Apparently thrift is gearing up for an apache release soon, which might make this more reasonable. I might make an issue/patch for that anyway as it would be useful for when using a different version of thrift.
