Tyler,
I see. That explains it. Any chance you might know how the Datastax Java driver behaves for this (odd) case?

It’s either: * Empty output. Nothing. Nil. Also ‘’. * An integer written in green. Regexp: [0-9]+ * Explicitly ‘null’ written in red letters. Some types (including ints) accept an empty string/ByteBuffer as a valid value. This is distinct from null, or no cell being present. This behavior is primarily a legacy from the Thrift days. -- Tyler Hobbs DataStax
