------------------------------------------

             Summary: Updates to PerRowSecondaryIndex don't use most current 
values 
                 Key: CASSANDRA-5397
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5397
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.2.3
            Reporter: Sam Tunnicliffe
            Assignee: Sam Tunnicliffe
            Priority: Minor


The way that updates to secondary indexes are performed using  
SecondaryIndexManager.Updater is flawed for PerRowSecondaryIndexes.  Unlike 
PerColumnSecondaryIndexes, which only require the old & new values for a single 
column,  the expectation is that a PerRow indexer can be given just a key which 
it will use to retrieve the entire row (or as many columns as it requires) and 
perform its indexing on those columns.  As the indexes are updated before the 
memtable atomic swap occurs, a per-row indexer may only read the previous 
values for the row, not the new ones that are being written. In the case of an 
insert, there is no previous value and so nothing is added to the index.
