Return name of snapshot directory after creating it
---------------------------------------------------
Key: CASSANDRA-1791
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1791
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 0.7.0 rc 1
Environment: Debian Squeeze
Reporter: paul cannon
When making a snapshot, the new directory is created with a timestamp and,
optionally, a user-supplied tag. For the sake of automated snapshot-creating
tools, it would be helpful to know unequivocally what the new snapshot
directory was named (otherwise, the tool must search for a directory similar
what it expects the name to be, which could be both error-prone and maybe
susceptible to attack).
Recommend making takeSnapshot and takeAllSnapshot return a string, which is the
base component of the new snapshot's directory name.
