T Jake Luciani commented on CASSANDRA-2474: ------------------------------------------- bq. UPDATE tweets SET COMPOUND NAME ('2e1c3308', 'cscotta') = 'My motocycle...' WHERE KEY = <key>; We can create a function like COMPOUND_NAME which will create a composite column under the hood, that will work for hive too. The syntax would then look like: {code} UPDATE tweets:transposed SET value = 'my motorcycle' WHERE KEY= <key> AND column = COMPOUND_NAME('2e1c3308', 'cscotta'); {code} > 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.
