Ryan McGuire created CASSANDRA-6019: ---------------------------------------
Summary: CQL identifier regex in documentation is wrong, (or cqlsh doesn't implement correctly) Key: CASSANDRA-6019 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6019 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: Bug Components: Documentation & website Reporter: Ryan McGuire Priority: Minor The [CQL docs|http://cassandra.apache.org/doc/cql3/CQL.html#identifiers] state that a CQL identifier can be any characters [a-zA-Z0-9_]*. ,but in fact, they cannot start with an '_' or a number. Empirically, it looks like the regex should be [a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9_].* -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
