Midpoint between two splits
Hello all,
I've got an odd use case that requires me to calculate the midpoint between
two Accumulo splits. I've been searching through the Accumulo source code
for a little bit trying to find where Accumulo automatically calculates a
new split. I am assuming that the new split point is somewhere around the
midpoint of two existing splits, and I was hoping to just take that instead
of coding it up myself.
Is this assumption correct? Could someone point it out to me so I can
borrow it? Or maybe there is some API call to calculate the midpoint?
Thank you,
--Adam

Thank you, Eric! Making this public may be helpful to others down the
road. Unsure how many requests are out there for this kind of
functionality being public.

You'll want to look
at org.apache.accumulo.server.util.FileUtil#findMidPoint. Note that it
isn't in the public API, and can change in the future.
