     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-1744?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Ted Yu updated HBASE-1744:
--------------------------

    Fix Version/s:     (was: 0.92.0)

There seems to be little attention to this JIRA.

> This mutateRows, etc.. is a little confusing compared to the new cleaner java client.
> Thinking of ways to make a thrift client that is just as elegant. something like:
> void put(1:Bytes table, 2:TPut put) throws (1:IOError io)
> with:
> struct TColumn {
>   1:Bytes family,
>   2:Bytes qualifier,
>   3:i64 timestamp
> }
> struct TPut {
>   1:Bytes row,
>   2:map<TColumn, Bytes> values
> }
> This creates more verbose rpc  than if the columns in TPut were just map<Bytes, map<Bytes, Bytes>>, but that is harder to fit timestamps into and still be intuitive from say python.
> Presumably the goal of a thrift gateway is to be easy first.
