Change delimiter in column qualifier

[Sachin Jain <sa...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I am using hbase in a system which does not allow using colon between
column name and column family. Is there any configuration where we an
provide hbase to use underscore (_) as delimiter instead of colon (:)
between name and family ?

Thanks

Hi Ted,

This is a problem with GET request and we are inside Informatica system
which does not allow/read any character except a-zA-Z0-9 and Underscore
(_). I was wondering if we can override the delimiter (:) with underscore
by some configuration then our query result will be parsed by informatica
connector.

I do not want to go into much details about informatica connector and all.
Just wanted to know if we can somehow override the colon delim with
underscore using some configuration.

Thanks
-Sachin

Can you give the error you encountered ?

If you look at the example from:

http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#_put_2

there is no delimiter: family and qualifier are two parameters to add()
method.
