Robert Stupp commented on CASSANDRA-9585:
-----------------------------------------
Ah - missed the loop over the string array in the unit test. Sorry - you're
right.
Just one nit: in NEWS.txt it should read "TRUNCATE" not "TRUNCAT"
Feel free to fix that on commit.
+1 on the patch (if cassci is fine)
> Make "truncate table X" an alias for "truncate X"

> CQL syntax is inconsistent: it's "drop table X" but "truncate X". It used to
> trip me up all the time until I wrapped my brain around this inconsistency
> and it still triggers a tiny bout of OCD every time I type it. I realize
> it's too late to change it, but why not have both? "truncate table X" is
> also consistent with the syntax in SQL.
