How to get the splitKeys for a table?

Let's say I created a table with this method in HBaseAdmin :
createTable(HTableDescriptor desc, byte[][] splitKeys)

Now, let's say I want to open up that table and get the array of splitKeys
I used when creating the table.  Is that possible?

Take a look at the following method in HTable:

  public Pair<byte[][],byte[][]> getStartEndKeys() throws IOException {
