Rick Shaw commented on CASSANDRA-2859:
--------------------------------------
Tighter requirements are *better*. WFM.
I am shuffling _where_ the checks happen, and will incorporate these fixes in a
proposed and rebased patch.
Checks are moving to static methods in {{Utils}} and out of
{{CassandraConnection}} and {{CassandraDriver}}.
> JDBC connection should catch malformed URLs better

> Some problems with the current connection handing:
> - host-less URLs are assumed to be localhost, when this is more commonly the
> result of a malformed URL (exhibit A: the current JdbcDriverTest connection)
> - there is no standard syntax for user/password in the url; attempting to
> support this will result in more malformed URLs. most (all?) other JDBC
> drivers force you to use the user/pass or properties constructors instead.
> - finally, a malformed URL can result in a very confusing
> InvalidRequestException if you manage to end up with garbage in the "path"
> component (which becomes keyspace): we send USE X to the server and if there
> are non-alphanumeric characters there we will get back a cryptic antlr parse
> failure ("line 1:28 no viable alternative at character 'K'")
