Yuki Morishita commented on CASSANDRA-2478: ------------------------------------------- bq. And not necessary at this time, but it is nice to have unit test like CliTest, based on debug client. Here, I mean automated protocol test using SimpleClient in unit test. CliTest runs bunch of cli commands to test cli functionality, so I thought we might be able to do the same thing to test native transport. If Norman has nothing more to say, then let's commit this to trunk. > Custom CQL protocol/transport > ----------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-2478 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2478 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: API, Core > Reporter: Eric Evans > Assignee: Sylvain Lebresne > Priority: Minor > Labels: cql > Attachments: cql_binary_protocol, cql_binary_protocol-v2 > > > A custom wire protocol would give us the flexibility to optimize for our > specific use-cases, and eliminate a troublesome dependency (I'm referring to > Thrift, but none of the others would be significantly better).
