StoredTabletFile (Apache Accumulo Core 2.1.1 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.apache.accumulo.core.metadata.TabletFile
- - org.apache.accumulo.core.metadata.StoredTabletFile

All Implemented Interfaces:

Comparable<TabletFile>
```
public class StoredTabletFile
extends TabletFile
```
Object representing a tablet file entry stored in the metadata table. Keeps a string of the exact entry of what is in the metadata table, which is important for updating and deleting metadata entries. If the exact string is not used, erroneous entries can pollute the metadata table. The main column qualifier used can be found: MetadataSchema.TabletsSection.DataFileColumnFamily The tablet file entry is also stored for scans and bulk imports.
As of 2.1, Tablet file paths should now be only absolute URIs with the removal of relative paths in Upgrader9to10.upgradeRelativePaths()
