Berenguer Blasi commented on CASSANDRA-17628:
---------------------------------------------

^Should we mention this on the docs? There is a specific section for these 
functions :thinking:

> CQL writetime and ttl functions should be forbidden for multicell columns

> CQL {{writetime}} and {{ttl}} functions are currently forbidden for 
> collections, frozen or not. Also, they are always allowed for UDTs, frozen or 
> not:
> {code}
> CREATE TYPE udt (a int, b int);
> CREATE TABLE t (k int PRIMARY KEY, s set<int>, fs frozen<set<int>>, t udt, ft 
> frozen<udt>);
> SELECT writetime(s) FROM t; -- fails
> SELECT writetime(st) FROM t; -- fails
> SELECT writetime(t) FROM t; -- allowed
> SELECT writetime(ft) FROM t; -- allowed
> {code}
> This is done by checking in 
> [{{Selectable.WritetimeOrTTL#newSelectorFactory}}|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/cassandra-4.0.4/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/cql3/selection/Selectable.java#L250]
>  whether the column is a collection or not. However, I think that what we 
> should check is whether the column is multi-cell. That way the function would 
> work with frozen collections and UDTs, and it would reject unfrozen 
> collections and UDTs:
> {code}
> SELECT writetime(s) FROM t; -- fails
> SELECT writetime(st) FROM t; -- allowed
> SELECT writetime(t) FROM t; -- fails
> SELECT writetime(ft) FROM t; -- allowed
> {code}
