WALCellCodec (Apache HBase 1.4.11 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.wal.WALCellCodec

All Implemented Interfaces:

Codec

Direct Known Subclasses:

SecureWALCellCodec
```
@InterfaceAudience.LimitedPrivate(value={"Coprocesssor","Phoenix","Configuration"})
public class WALCellCodec
extends Object
implements Codec
```
Compression in this class is lifted off Compressor/KeyValueCompression. This is a pure coincidence... they are independent and don't have to be compatible. This codec is used at server side for writing cells to WAL as well as for sending edits as part of the distributed splitting process.

  - WALCellCodec
```
public WALCellCodec(org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration conf,
            CompressionContext compression)
```
    Default constructor - all subclasses must implement a constructor with this signature if they are to be dynamically loaded from the Configuration.
    
    Parameters:
    conf - configuration to configure this
    compression - compression the codec should support, can be null to indicate no compression

  - create
```
public static WALCellCodec create(org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration conf,
                  String cellCodecClsName,
                  CompressionContext compression)
                           throws UnsupportedOperationException
```
    Create and setup a WALCellCodec from the cellCodecClsName and CompressionContext, if cellCodecClsName is specified. Otherwise Cell Codec classname is read from Configuration. Fully prepares the codec for use.
    
    Parameters:
    conf - Configuration to read for the user-specified codec. If none is specified, uses a WALCellCodec.
    compression - compression the codec should use
    
    Returns:
    a WALCellCodec ready for use.
    
    Throws:
    
    UnsupportedOperationException - if the codec cannot be instantiated
  - create

                           throws UnsupportedOperationException
```
    Create and setup a WALCellCodec from the CompressionContext. Cell Codec classname is read from Configuration. Fully prepares the codec for use.
    
    Parameters:
    conf - Configuration to read for the user-specified codec. If none is specified, uses a WALCellCodec.
    compression - compression the codec should use
    
    Returns:
    a WALCellCodec ready for use.
