[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-8089) Add type support

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-8089?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13725451#comment-13725451 ] 

Matt Corgan commented on HBASE-8089:
------------------------------------

Nick - what other dependencies does your whole new type library have on HBase besides ByteRange?  It would be grand if it were a standalone jar that could be used by other projects without importing hbase-specific libs (which then drag in other dependencies).  All of this functionality is really cool and is more likely to gain adoption if it's as easy as possible to drop in existing projects.

> This proposal outlines an improvement to HBase that provides for a set of types, above and beyond the existing "byte-bucket" strategy. This is intended to reduce user-level duplication of effort, provide better support for 3rd-party integration, and provide an overall improved experience for developers using HBase.
