HBase Java Filters Support

The hb_get_set_filter() and hb_scanner_set_filter() C APIs are used to filter the results of GET and SCAN operations. These APIs are in the get.h and scanner.h header files.

They both take filters that are passed as strings, as well as the length of these strings. HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database parses the strings to construct filters.

Their signatures are:

int32_t hb_get_set_filter(hb_get_t get, const byte_t *filter, const int32_t filterLen);
int32_t hb_scanner_set_filter(hb_scanner_t scanner, const byte_t *filter, const int32_t filterLen);
