Aleksey Yeschenko commented on CASSANDRA-10924:
-----------------------------------------------
It's a static method though. So we could in theory check for existence of the
overload and call that if available? Maybe.
> Pass base table's metadata to Index.validateOptions

> Some custom index implementations require the base table's metadata to
> validate their creation options. For example, the options of these
> implementations can contain information about which base table's columns are
> going to be indexed and how, so the implementation needs to know the
> existence and the type of the columns to be indexed to properly validate.
> The attached patch proposes to add base table's {{CFMetaData}} to Index'
> optional static method to validate the custom index options:
> {{public static Map<String, String> validateOptions(CFMetaData cfm,
> Map<String, String> options);}}
