Joshua McKenzie commented on CASSANDRA-9054: -------------------------------------------- bq. but that's an even more intrusive patch Just wanted to point out: there's no reason we'd have to do all of that at once. We can (and should) take an incremental approach to changes like this instead of Big-Banging it. > Break DatabaseDescriptor up into multiple classes. > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-9054 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-9054 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Jeremiah Jordan > Assignee: Robert Stupp > Fix For: 3.x > > > Right now to get at Config stuff you go through DatabaseDescriptor. But when > you instantiate DatabaseDescriptor it actually opens system tables and such, > which triggers commit log replays, and other things if the right flags aren't > set ahead of time. This makes getting at config stuff from tools annoying, > as you have to be very careful about instantiation orders. > It would be nice if we could break DatabaseDescriptor up into multiple > classes, so that getting at config stuff from tools wasn't such a pain. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
