Aleksey Yeschenko commented on CASSANDRA-5563:
----------------------------------------------
Steven is suggesting making token() function accept null (and native proto
supports binding null) to make paging through rows possible in CQL3 using one
single prepared query.
> 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: Bug
> Components: API
> Affects Versions: 1.2.0
> Reporter: Steven Lowenthal
> Assignee: Sylvain Lebresne
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.2.5
>
>
> 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:
> {code}
> CqlPreparedResult stmt =
> _client.prepare_cql3_query(ByteBuffer.wrap("SELECT \" Sequence number\" from
> \"nhanes52simple\" where TOKEN (\" Sequence number\") > TOKEN(?) limit
> 15".getBytes()), Compression.NONE);
> // 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);
> }
> {code}
