Specify multiple filters in hbase

hbase, java

Solution

You have to create a FilterList object, and add all the filters you want to that, and set this `FilterList` object as the filter. You can either use the constructor or use the `addFilter()` method to add filters to the filter list.

FilterList filterList = new FilterList();
filterList.addFilter(new RowFilter(...));
filterList.addFilter(new ColumnFilter(...));
Scan s = new Scan();
s.setFilter(filterList);

Problem

Is there a way to specify multiple filters during a scan? For example - Specify both a `ColumnFamilyFilter` and `RowFilter`? ``` Filter rowFilter = new RowFilter(CompareFilter.CompareOp.EQUAL, new RegexStringComparator( rowFilterString)); Scan s = new Scan(); s.setFilter(rowFilter); ``` I wanted to also add a `ColumnFilter` to `s`. But it obviously overrides the latest filter.
