Exception while using Hbase custom Filter

[ManujSubhankar]

I have written a custom Filter extending FilterBase and converted into JAR. The filter looks like this :

public class MyFilter extends FilterBase {
	boolean filterRow= true;
	String srh;
	
	public MyFilter(String str) {
		this.srh= str;
	}

	@Override
	public ReturnCode filterKeyValue(Cell c) throws IOException {
		String str= Bytes.toString(c.getValue());
		
		if(str.contains(str)) {
			filterRow= false;
			return ReturnCode.INCLUDE;
		}
		
		filterRow= true;
		return ReturnCode.SKIP;
	}
	
	@Override
	public  boolean filterRow() {
		return filterRow;
	}

}  

After making the JAR file (i.e. MyFilter.jar) I put it in /use/local/HBase/lib/filters directory. Then I set

export HBASE_CLASSPATH="/usr/local/Hbase/lib/filters/MyFilter.jar"

in hbase-env.sh filter and restarted the hbase server. Then I used the custom filter from java program :

public static void main(String argv[]) throws IOException {
		Configuration conf= HBaseConfiguration.create();
		Connection con= ConnectionFactory.createConnection(conf);
		
		Table table= con.getTable(TableName.valueOf("stud"));
		
		Filter fl= new MyFilter("uc");
		
		Scan sc= new Scan();
		sc.setFilter(fl);
		
		ResultScanner rs= table.getScanner(sc);
		
		for(Result r : rs)
			System.out.println(Bytes.toString(r.getValue(Bytes.toBytes("perData"), Bytes.toBytes("name"))));
	}

But getting following exception
