025/**
026 * Implementations are installed on a Replication Sink called from inside
027 * ReplicationSink#replicateEntries to filter replicated WALEntries based off WALEntry attributes.
028 * Currently only table name and replication write time are exposed (WALEntry is a private,
029 * internal class so we cannot pass it here). To install, set
030 * <code>hbase.replication.sink.walentryfilter</code> to the name of the implementing
031 * class. Implementing class must have a no-param Constructor.
032 * <p>This filter is of limited use. It is better to filter on the replication source rather than
033 * here after the edits have been shipped on the replication sink. That said, applications such
034 * as the hbase-indexer want to filter out any edits that were made before replication was enabled.
035 * @see org.apache.hadoop.hbase.replication.WALEntryFilter for filtering on the replication
036 * source-side.
