David Capwell commented on CASSANDRA-18504:
-------------------------------------------

just pushed a patch that breaks AbstractTypeTest as I added support for 
CompositeType and found a fun bug where using this may corrupt the DB's 
in-memory state (if set<'CompositeType(...)'> is seen before set< bytes> is 
seen, then ordering breaks in 
org.apache.cassandra.serializers.SetSerializer#serializeValues... adding a test 
to detect this type of bug also found the same issue with LexicalUUIDType and 
uuid, which can corrupt ordering as well...

> Added support for type VECTOR<type, dimension>

> Based off several mailing list threads (see "[POLL] Vector type for ML”, 
> "[DISCUSS] New data type for vector search”, and "Adding vector search to SAI 
> with heirarchical navigable small world graph index”), its desirable to add a 
> new type “VECTOR” that has the following properties
> 1) fixed length array
> 2) elements may not be null
> 3) flatten array (aka multi-cell = false)
