stack commented on HBASE-1064:
------------------------------

Looks like REST still uses the xmlenc for XML outputting (Thats no prob., just thought it no longer used it).

> I've begun work on creating a REST based interface for HBase that can use both JSON and XML and would be extensible enough to add new formats down the road.  I'm at a point with this where I would like to submit it for review and to get feedback as I continue to work towards new features.
> Attached to this issue you will find the patch for the changes to this point along with a necessary jar file for the JSON serialization.  Also below you will find my notes on how to use what is finished with the interface to this point.
> This patch is based off of jira issues: 
> HBASE-814 and HBASE-815
> I am interested on gaining feedback on:
> -what you guys think works
> -what doesn't work for the project
> -anything that may need to be added
> -code style
> -anything else...
> Finished components:
> -framework around parsing json/xml input
> -framework around serialzing xml/json output
> -changes to exception handing
> -changes to the response object to better handle the serializing of output data
> -table CRUD calls
> -Full table fetching
> -creating/fetching scanners
> TODO:
> -fix up the filtering with scanners
> -row insert/delete operations
> -individual row fetching
> -cell fetching interface
> -scanner use interface
