Re: [jira] Updated: (HBASE-1309) HFile catches key in Memcache with
empty value
I think it might be legit to store an empty value, empty key = not gonna
happen.
but if the key has enough data in it, eg: a delete tombstone, the value
might be not interesting, so why store a placeholder?
what particular circumstance is this happening under? I dont want to 'fix'
hfile by allowing empty/null values only to mask a different error that you
are getting...
