> We have 2 types of table properties in CQL: simple ones (comment,
> gc_grace_seconds, ...), which are basically of type text (even if, we
> historically allow constants of any type) and complex ones (compaction,
> caching...), which are basically map<text, text>.
> The only syntax that {{ALTER TABLE WITH}} supports is of setting a property,
> and so for the later kind, we basically always have to provide the new full
> map for the option. To take an example, say you have a table with compaction
> and want to enable compaction logging you will have to provide the all map.
> In order to avoid that problem we can add support for the {{+=}} (and {{-=}}
> ideally) syntax that already exists for maps otherwise, and support:
> {code}
> ALTER TABLE t WITH compaction+= { 'log_all' : 'true' }
> {code}
> +Additional info for newcomers:+
> In order to implement this change you will need to change the Parser.g ANTLR
> file located in the src/antlr directory and the java classes corresponding to
> the different alter statements located in the
> {{org.apache.cassandra.cql3.statements.schema}} package.
> The unit test for the CQL logic are located under
> {{org.apache.cassandra.cql3.validation}}
