Pavel Yaskevich commented on CASSANDRA-2474: -------------------------------------------- How about we change it to: {code} CREATE TRANSPOSED TABLE events ( series text primary key, ts1 int SPARSE, cat text, subcat text, "1337" uuid DENSE(int), "92d21d0a-d6cb-437c-9d3f-b67aa733a19f" bigint SPARSE(uuid) ); {code} Where SPARSE could be with or without an argument identifying column comparator. DENSE could only with with argument, columns without keyword are DENSE by default?... This allows to specify comparator and order of sparse/dense columns. > CQL support for compound columns > -------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-2474 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2474 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: API, Core > Reporter: Eric Evans > Assignee: Pavel Yaskevich > Labels: cql > Fix For: 1.1 > > Attachments: 2474-transposed-1.PNG, 2474-transposed-raw.PNG, > 2474-transposed-select.PNG, 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.
