    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4938?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13161838#comment-13161838 ] 

dhruba borthakur commented on HBASE-4938:
-----------------------------------------

This is a very minor restarting of the code. We have some internal HRegion API that needs to scan based on a external readPoint. Of course, we could duplicate this piece of code from HRegion.java into our own code base, but in the spirit of making all our code changes compatible with Apache copen source, I would like to request the community to analyze this requested code change and approve of it. I will provide a patch.

> There is an existing api HRegion.getScanner(Scan) that allows scanning a table. My proposal is to extend it to HRegion.getScanner(Scan, long readPoint)
