[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-5746) HFileDataBlockEncoderImpl uses wrong header size when reading HFiles with no checksums (0.96)

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5746?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13249395#comment-13249395 ]

--------------------------------------

Matt's comment on parent:

Eventually it would be nice to isolate the code that deals with the fragile byte[]'s inside HFile blocks into separate src directories or projects. Then have that code implement interfaces similar to DataBlockEncoder.java. This would:
* make it more testable, like a normal in-memory data structure without having to set up heavyweight testing environments
* separate the encoding concerns from IO concerns. after the checksum happens, encoders/decoders should not even know what an IOException is
* strongly discourage people from modifying anything in the codec packages without knowing what they're getting into
* ensure the main project code only references the interfaces and not any codec internals (see if main project compiles without codecs in classpath)
* make it easier for contributors to develop and profile the codecs without having to become experts in all aspects of hbase
* help to simplify the main project. imagine if the gzip or snappy internals were sprinkled throughout the regionserver code. yikes.
