Branimir Lambov created CASSANDRA-8244:
------------------------------------------
Summary: Token, DecoratedKey, RowPosition and all bound types
should not make any hidden references to the database partitioner
Key: CASSANDRA-8244
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8244
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Branimir Lambov
Priority: Minor
Currently some of the functionality of Token refers to
StorageService.getPartitioner() to avoid needing an extra argument. This is in
turn implicitly used by RowPosition and then Range, causing possible problems,
for example when ranges on secondary indices are used in a murmur-partitioned
database.
These references should be removed to force explicit choice of partitioner by
callers; alternatively, the Token interface could be changed to provide a
reference to the partitioner that created it.
(Note: the hidden reference to partitioner in serialization is a separate
issue.)
