Can't delete whole row from Hadoop MapReduce
--------------------------------------------

                 Key: CASSANDRA-2014
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2014
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Hadoop
    Affects Versions: 0.7.0
         Environment: Debian Linux 2.6.32 amd64
            Reporter: Patrik Modesto


ColumnFamilyRecordWriter.java doesn't support Mutation with Deletion without 
slice_predicat and super_column to delete whole row. The other way I tried is 
to specify SlicePredicate with empty start and finish and I got:

{{
java.io.IOException: InvalidRequestException(why:Deletion does not yet support 
SliceRange predicates.)
        at 
org.apache.cassandra.hadoop.ColumnFamilyRecordWriter$RangeClient.run(ColumnFamilyRecordWriter.java:355)
}}

I tryied to patch the ColumnFamilyRecordWriter.java like this:
{{

             // deletion
             Deletion deletion = new Deletion(amut.deletion.timestamp);
             mutation.setDeletion(deletion);
+
             org.apache.cassandra.avro.SlicePredicate apred = 
amut.deletion.predicate;
-            if (amut.deletion.super_column != null)
+            if (apred == null && amut.deletion.super_column == null)
+            {
+                // epmty; delete whole row
+            }
+            else if (amut.deletion.super_column != null)
+            {
                 // super column
                 deletion.setSuper_column(copy(amut.deletion.super_column));
+            }
             else if (apred.column_names != null)
             {
                 // column names
}}

but that didn't work as well.
