the first row of hb.scan.ex is uncertain

[evanswang]

Hi,

I'm currently using rhbase plugin on R 2.15.2 with Hadoop-1.0.3 and HBase-0.96.0. I got a funny problem. I have many rows, such as "GSM330761", "GSM330762", "GSM330763"... When I use hb.scan.ex with start = "GSM330761" and end = "GSM330763", sometimes I got the result with "GSM330761", "GSM330762", "GSM330763", and sometimes I got "GSM330762", "GSM330763". It is uncertain. Anyone can tell me why?

Many thanks!

Evan
