---------------------------------------
Summary: High resolution types for timestamp and time
Key: CASSANDRA-7536
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7536
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Robert Stupp
CASSANDRA-7523 adds support for _date_ and _time_ data types using the same
precision as current _timestamp_ type.
This ticket is about to add high resolution (nanosecond precision) types for
timestamp and time. It should be easy to use with Joda API and Java 8
{{java.time}} API.
Additionally support for time zone / offset (might need be handled differently)
could be introduced using new time and timestamp types.
Idea for binary serialization format (from java.time API):
{{(int)year (short)month (short)day (byte)hour (byte)minute (byte)second
(int)nano (int)offsetInSeconds}}
Additional thinking is required to make even the time zone / offset types
comparable (even for different TZ offsets) - so these might not be covered by
this ticket.
