-------------------------------------------

             Summary: The CQL3 binary protocol does not allow a user to bind an 
empty buffer to signify the start of the token range
                 Key: CASSANDRA-5563
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5563
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: API
    Affects Versions: 1.2.3
            Reporter: Steven Lowenthal


Using CQL2 or CQL3 over thrift, one can issue a query which starts at the 
beginning of the table by binding an empty buffer.  The same is true for CQL2 
using calls like get_range_slice.   This is not allowed with the binary 
protocol.  Here is working sample code for CQL3 over thrift:

    // Bind empty buffer to get query to start at the beginning of 
    // the table
    ByteBuffer b = ByteBuffer.wrap(new byte[0]);
    bindVars.add(b);

    int cnt = 0;
    CqlResult result;

    do {
      result =  _client.execute_prepared_cql3_query(stmt.itemId, bindVars, 
ConsistencyLevel.ONE);
      // Set up the next chunk, by setting the bind var to the last received key
      bindVars.set(0, ByteBuffer.wrap(result.getRows()
              .get(result.getRows().size() - 
1).getColumns().get(0).getValue()));

      // Count rows
      cnt += result.getRows().size();

      if (cnt > 100)
        Assert.fail("Running past the end of the table: cnt = " + cnt + ", 
size() =  " + result.getRows().size());

    } while (result.getRows().size() >= CHUNK_SIZE);

    Assert.assertEquals("Wrong count", 100, cnt);

  }
