do not bind to a specific address for listening
-----------------------------------------------
Key: CASSANDRA-3352
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3352
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Yang Yang
Priority: Minor
now the thrift api binds to a specific address when it opens up the tcp socket.
this creates a little inconvenience when you access the box in cassandra-cli:
you have to find the exact host name. but if you are using cassandra-cli on
localhost,
you would normally like to just use "localhost"; similarly there is a problem
if
you use EC2, you have to find the external address, instead of using the local
ip, which is available to you.
I understand that the bind address would be useful in cases of testing (you can
create multiple
clusters on the same box), but probably we could preserve that behavior through
a config var for testing mode only
