Nicolas Spiegelberg 119ae0c4ac [jira] [HBASE-4627] Ability to specify a custom start/end to RegionSplitter
Summary:
[HBASE-4627]

added a custom start/end row to RegionSplitter.  Also solved
an off-by-one error because the end row is prefix-inclusive and not
exclusive.

<a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4489" title="Better key splitting in RegionSplitter"><del>HBASE-4489</del></a> changed the default endKey on HexStringSplit from 7FFF... to FFFF...  While this is correct, existing users of 0.90 RegionSplitter have 7FFF as the end key in their schema and the last region will not split properly under this new code.  We need to let the user specify a custom start/end key range for when situations like this arise.  Optimally, we should also write the start/end key in META so we could figure this out implicitly instead of requiring the user to explicitly specify it.

Test Plan:
 - mvn test -Dtest=TestRegionSplitter

README.txt

Apache HBase [1] is an open-source, distributed, versioned, column-oriented
store modeled after Google' Bigtable: A Distributed Storage System for
Structured Data by Chang et al.[2]  Just as Bigtable leverages the distributed
data storage provided by the Google File System, HBase provides Bigtable-like
capabilities on top of Apache Hadoop [3].

To get started using HBase, the full documentation for this release can be
found under the doc/ directory that accompanies this README.  Using a browser,
open the docs/index.html to view the project home page (or browse to [1]).
The hbase 'book' at docs/book.html has a 'quick start' section and is where you
should being your exploration of the hbase project.

The latest HBase can be downloaded from an Apache Mirror [4].

The source code can be found at [5]
