Description

Registering a Copressor in the following way will fail as the "Coprocessor$1" keyword is case sensitive (instead COPROCESSOR$1 works fine). Removing this restriction would improve usability.

HTableDescriptor desc = new HTableDescriptor(tName);
desc.setValue("Coprocessor$1",
path.toString() + ":" + full_class_name +
":" + Coprocessor.Priority.USER);
