The Erlang PB client gives and takes secondary index information as binaries in some places and strings in others. For example riakc_pb_socket:get_index/4 wants the Index and Key as binaries. Retrieving the index information from the meta data of an object read out of Riak gives the Index and Key as strings.
Can strings and binaries be used interchangeable for indexes throughout the API? Or is is such that the representation inside of a riak_obj is a strings, but API functions want it as binaries? The inconsistency is a bit of a nuisance. In testing of some of my application's logic I'm setting an index on a new object using binary values, I query the index using the binary values, but when I read it back they're strings. -- Jeremy _______________________________________________ riak-users mailing list riak-users@lists.basho.com http://lists.basho.com/mailman/listinfo/riak-users_lists.basho.com
