I'm trying to retrieve rows with in range, using Filter List but I'm not
successful. Below is my code snippet.

I want to retrieve data between 1000 and 2000.

HTable table = new HTable(conf, "TRAN_DATA");

    List<Filter> filters = new ArrayList<Filter>();

    SingleColumnValueFilter filter1 = new
SingleColumnValueFilter(Bytes.toBytes("TRAN"),
              Bytes.toBytes("TRAN_ID"),
              CompareFilter.CompareOp.GREATER, new
BinaryComparator(Bytes.toBytes("1000")));
    filter1.setFilterIfMissing(true);
    filters.add(filter1);

    SingleColumnValueFilter filter2 = new
SingleColumnValueFilter(Bytes.toBytes("TRAN"),
              Bytes.toBytes("TRAN_ID"),
              CompareFilter.CompareOp.LESS,new
BinaryComparator(Bytes.toBytes("2000")));

    filters.add(filter2);

    FilterList filterList = new FilterList(filters);

    Scan scan = new Scan();
    scan.setFilter(filterList);
    ResultScanner scanner1 = table.getScanner(scan);

    System.out.println("Results of scan #1 - MUST_PASS_ALL:");
    int n = 0;

    for (Result result : scanner1) {
        for (KeyValue kv : result.raw()) {
            System.out.println("KV: " + kv + ", Value: "
                    + Bytes.toString(kv.getValue()));
        {
            n++;

        }
    }
    scanner1.close();

Tried with all possible ways using
1. SingleColumnValueFilter filter2 = new
SingleColumnValueFilter(Bytes.toBytes("TRANSACTIONS"),
Bytes.toBytes("TRANS_ID"), CompareFilter.CompareOp.LESS, new
SubstringComparator("5000"));

SingleColumnValueFilter filter2 = new
SingleColumnValueFilter(Bytes.toBytes("TRANSACTIONS"),
Bytes.toBytes("TRANS_ID"), CompareFilter.CompareOp.LESS,
Bytes.toBytes("5000")); None of above approaches work :(

Can you try adding this to your code:
scan.addColumn(Bytes.toBytes("TRAN"), Bytes.toBytes("TRAN_ID"))

I think BinaryComparator will not give any help to achieve that goal(Because it's not a number comparison).
You can try to customize your own comparator(Extend the class of WritableByteArrayComparable), and write the rules of how to do that comparison. And then using this comparator to do the scanning.

@Yifeng - Nope no success. I tried both ways:
BinaryComparator as well as directly passing bytes none worked.
It still picks up record 120, 117... when given range is 1000-2000.

"It still picks up record 120, 117... when given range is 1000-2000."

How you have saved the int data value into HBase column?  Have you not used Bytes.toBytes(int) ??   If you have used the same,  the BinaryComparator would have worked fine I guess..

@Anoop - Tried your suggestions too, no success. I mean stored values as
bytes but int format now \x00\x00\x00\x17 but while filtering it goofs up
and picks up incorrect data.

Just adding on to Anoop's reply
    SingleColumnValueFilter filter1 = new
SingleColumnValueFilter(Bytes.toBytes("TRAN"),
              Bytes.toBytes("TRAN_ID"),
              CompareFilter.CompareOp.GREATER, new
BinaryComparator(Bytes.toBytes(1000)));
    filter1.setFilterIfMissing(true);
    filters.add(filter1);

    SingleColumnValueFilter filter2 = new
SingleColumnValueFilter(Bytes.toBytes("TRAN"),
              Bytes.toBytes("TRAN_ID"),
              CompareFilter.CompareOp.LESS,new
BinaryComparator(Bytes.toBytes(2000)));

If you had inserted the value as Integer and then retrieve it as integer
using Bytes.toBytes then you can get the intended result.

Ram

@RamKrishna - I have inserted records as integer but when I go for filtering
them using filters it still gives wrong data, I just apply filters as
mentioned that's how the records should be picked, but the filter goes for
toss.

In my mail I had actually used int rather than String as how you had used
inside the Filter
    SingleColumnValueFilter filter1 = new
SingleColumnValueFilter(Bytes.toBytes("TRAN"),
              Bytes.toBytes("TRAN_ID"),
              CompareFilter.CompareOp.GREATER, new
BinaryComparator(Bytes.toBytes(1000)));

There is no '"' in the Bytes.toBytes

When  using org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.Increment api it allows to
addColumn with Long value, but there is no way to do the same using
org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.Put api and when I tried adding Long values
using Put api it stores in\x0 format but when I try to retrieve it, it
prints as unknown character.

@Sanky

SingleColumnValueFilter filter1 = new SingleColumnValueFilter(Bytes.toBytes("TRAN"),
              Bytes.toBytes("TRAN_ID"), CompareFilter.CompareOp.GREATER, new
BinaryComparator(Bytes.toBytes("1000")));

Are you sure you have used Bytes.toBytes(int) for storing?  Here when you created the filter atleast I can see you passed 1000 as String to create the bytes. Pls make sure to use int and create the bytes both while storing the [Creation of Put] and when u create the filter and see once....  I have checked the BinaryComparator and it should work as per your expectation if you have used int in all places....

Bytes.toBytes(int) to be used every where when your column type is int...
