org.apache.hadoop.hbase.filter.MultipleColumnPrefixFilter

@InterfaceAudience.Public
@InterfaceStability.Stable
public class MultipleColumnPrefixFilter
extends FilterBase

This filter is used for selecting only those keys with columns that matches a particular prefix. For example, if prefix is 'an', it will pass keys will columns like 'and', 'anti' but not keys with columns like 'ball', 'act'.
