Aleksey Yeschenko commented on CASSANDRA-12373:
-----------------------------------------------
bq. These columns are not persisted together with the rest of schema, they're
completely virtual and created during CFMetadata construction.
I do believe that in 2.1 we currently allow renaming these columns in CQL
metadata. For users that have switched from Thrift to CQL for their
supercolumns and changed from the default names, losing that metadata on
upgrade might count as a breaking change.
> 3.0 breaks CQL compatibility with super columns families

> Key: CASSANDRA-12373
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-12373
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: CQL
> Reporter: Sylvain Lebresne
> Assignee: Alex Petrov
> Fix For: 3.0.x, 3.x
>
>
> This is a follow-up to CASSANDRA-12335 to fix the CQL side of super column
> compatibility.
> The details and a proposed solution can be found in the comments of
> CASSANDRA-12335 but the crux of the issue is that super column famillies show
> up differently in CQL in 3.0.x/3.x compared to 2.x, hence breaking backward
> compatibilty.
