Paulo Motta commented on CASSANDRA-20827:
-----------------------------------------
Since this is changing output format, we should probably make a setting
{{-Dcassandra.config.virtual_table_complex_settings_format_json=true}} (or
other name) to allow users to keep the old format by overriding this property.
Should this go in 5.0 with
{{-Dcassandra.config.virtual_table_complex_settings_format_json=false}} and
trunk with
{{-Dcassandra.config.virtual_table_complex_settings_format_json=true}} + note
on NEWS.txt ?

> Project: Apache Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Local/Config
> Reporter: Paulo Motta
> Assignee: Marko Tsymbaliuk
> Priority: Normal
> Time Spent: 40m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h

> Complex configuration (maps/sets/lists) are represented as
> Collections.toString() on {{system.settings}} virtual table:
> {code:java}
> cqlsh> select * from system_views.settings where name='seed_provider' ;
> name | value
> ------+-------
> (0 rows)
> cqlsh> select * from system_views.settings where
> name='seed_provider.parameters' ;
> name | value
> --------------------------+------------------------
> seed_provider.parameters | {seeds=127.0.0.1:7000}
> {code}
> While this is fine for human consumption, it's not ideal for programmatic
> access, since it requires custom parsing.
> This ticket is to add ability of representing complex types as JSON on
> {{system.settings}} and potentially making it default in trunk, so the above
> would return:
> {code:java}
> cqlsh> select * from system_views.settings where name='seed_provider' ;
> name | value
> ------+-------
> (0 rows)
> cqlsh> select * from system_views.settings where
> name='seed_provider.parameters' ;
> name | value
> --------------------------+------------------------
> seed_provider.parameters | {"seeds": "127.0.0.1:7000"}{code}
