--------------------------------------------
[~mychal] It seems that we dropped the ball several years ago on this ticket.
Sorry, for that.
I wanted to look at your patch but the link is dead.
I will put the ticket to the open status. If you still have the patch lying
around somewhere and wish to resubmit it, feel free to put back the patch in
Patch Available status and I will have a look at it.
> [CQL] Inconsistent handling double dollar sign for strings
> ----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-13958
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-13958
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Legacy/CQL
> Reporter: Hugo Picado
> Assignee: Michał Szczygieł
> Priority: Low
>
> Double dollar signs is a [built-in method for escaping columns that may
> contain single quotes in its
> content](https://docs.datastax.com/en/cql/3.3/cql/cql_reference/escape_char_r.html).
> The way this is handled however is not consistent, in the sense that it
> allows for $ to appear in the middle of the string but not in the last char.
> *Examples:*
> Valid: insert into users(id, name) values(1, $$john$$)
> Inserts the string *john*
> Valid: insert into users(id, name) values(1, $$jo$hn$$)
> Inserts the string *jo$hn*
> Valid: insert into users(id, name) values(1, $$$john$$)
> Inserts the string *$john*
> Invalid: insert into users(id, name) values(1, $$john$$$)
> Fails with:
> {code}
> Invalid syntax at line 1, char 48
> insert into users(id, name) values(1, $$john$$$);
> {code}
