[jira] Created: (HBASE-1989) HBaseAdmin (et al.) not accurate with
Column vs. Column-Family usage
HBaseAdmin (et al.) not accurate with Column vs. Column-Family usage
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HBASE-1989
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-1989
Project: Hadoop HBase
Issue Type: Bug
Components: client
Affects Versions: 0.20.1
Reporter: Doug Meil
Priority: Minor
Consider the classes HBaseAdmin and HColumnDescriptor.
HColumnDescriptor is really referring to a "column family" and not a "column" (i.e., family:qualifer).
Likewise, in HBaseAdmin there is a method called "addColumn" that takes an HColumnDescriptor instance.
I labeled this a bug in the sense that it produces conceptual confusion because there is a big difference between a column and column-family in HBase and these terms should be used consistently. The code works, though.

------------------------------
This is a start. Will I commit it as a start in on this issue, as a part 1? I'm working on the other part over in master rewrite where HColumnDescriptor becomes instead ColumnFamilyDefinition, etc., throughout the code base.

------------------------------
I'll take this one. Redoing HCD any ways to go against ZK instead of as a Writable so can change it then.

[jira] Updated: (HBASE-1989) HBaseAdmin (et al.) not accurate with
Column vs. Column-Family usage
Posted by "Lars Francke (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-1989?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Lars Francke updated HBASE-1989:
--------------------------------
Attachment: hbase1989.patch
I did a small part of this before I found this issue. I only changed HBaseAdmin - this patch deprecates the old methods and changes their usage.
But as I said: This is only a small part of the renaming process but perhaps it is useful anyway
