Pavel Yaskevich commented on CASSANDRA-2474: -------------------------------------------- how about this? {noformat} -- sparse select example SELECT TRANSPOSE NAME TO (tweet_id; username, body; location) FROM tweets WHERE key = <key> AND username = 'xedin'; -- dense select example SELECT TRANSPOSE NAME TO (tweet_id; username; location) FROM tweets WHERE key = <key> AND username = 'xedin'; -- insert INSERT INTO tweets (KEY, COMPOUND NAME ('2e1c3308', username)) VALUES (<key>, 'cscotta'); INSERT INTO tweets (KEY, COMPOUND NAME ('2e1c3308', body)) VALUES (<key>, 'Brother...'); INSERT INTO tweets (KEY, COMPOUND NAME ('2e1c3308', 'cscotta')) VALUES (<key>, 'Brother...'); -- update UPDATE tweets SET COMPOUND NAME ('2e1c3308', 'cscotta') = 'My motocycle...' WHERE KEY = <key>; {noformat} > CQL support for compound columns > -------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-2474 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2474 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: API, Core > Reporter: Eric Evans > Assignee: Pavel Yaskevich > Labels: cql > Fix For: 1.0 > > Attachments: screenshot-1.jpg, screenshot-2.jpg > > > For the most part, this boils down to supporting the specification of > compound column names (the CQL syntax is colon-delimted terms), and then > teaching the decoders (drivers) to create structures from the results. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
