Folke Behrens commented on CASSANDRA-2233:
------------------------------------------
A few more suggestions:
- generalize the type, make it deal with all kinds of variants/versions.
(http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4122)
- check if it makes sense to treat the Nil UUID differently (similarly to NULL
in popular SQL databases).
- don't access ByteBuffer.array() directly without asking if
ByteBuffer.hasArray() first.
- write a unit test.
- format the code: http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/CodeStyle
- check with the devs if they would prefer a patch.
> Add unified UUIDType

> Key: CASSANDRA-2233
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2233
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 0.7.3
> Reporter: Ed Anuff
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: UUIDType.java
>
>
> Unified UUIDType comparator, compares as time-based if both UUIDs are
> time-based, otherwise uses byte comparison. Based on code from the current
> LexicalUUIDType and TimeUUIDType comparers, so performance and behavior
> should be consistent and compatible.
