> org.apache.cassandra.db.marshal.TimestampType.dateStringToTimestamp()
> contains a regular expression that checks to see if the String argument
> contains a number. If so it parses it as a long timestamp. However
> pre-epoch timestamps are negative and the code doesn't account for this so it
> tries to parse it as a formatted Date. A tweak to the regular expression in
> TimestampType.dateStringToTimestamp() would solve this issue.
> I could use formatted date strings instead, but the TimestampType date parser
> uses ISO8601 patterns which would cause the timestamp to be rounded to the
> nearest second.
> Currently I get the following exception message:
> unable to coerce '-86400000' to a formatted date (long)
