Nick Bailey commented on CASSANDRA-4763:
----------------------------------------
I didn't notice before but it looks like we require sstable files to be named
according to the convention cassandra is using? If that is true, then yeah
getting the keyspace name from the actual sstable file name is probably the
right approach here.
> SSTableLoader shouldn't get keyspace from path

> Key: CASSANDRA-4763
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4763
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Tools
> Affects Versions: 1.2.0 beta 1
> Reporter: Nick Bailey
> Priority: Minor
>
> SSTableLoader currently gets the keyspace it is going to load to from the
> path of the directoy of sstables it is loading. This isn't really documented
> (or I didn't see it), but also isn't really a good way of doing it in general.
> {noformat}
> this.keyspace = directory.getParentFile().getName();
> {noformat}
> We should probably just let users pass the name in. If you are loading a
> snapshot the file names will have the keyspace which is slightly better but
> people manually creating their own sstables might not format them the same.
