[jira] Commented: (HBASE-62) [hbase] Allow user add arbitrary key/value pairs to table and column descriptors

["Andrew Purtell (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-62?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12609070#action_12609070 ] 

Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-62:
-------------------------------------

Implemented by modifying HTableDescriptor and HColumnDescriptor to incorporate a MapWritable that uses ImmutableBytesWritables for keys and values. A number of issues related to greater descriptor flexibility will be linked shortly, and I'll issue a patch that addresses them all.
