C. Scott Andreas updated CASSANDRA-14708:
-----------------------------------------
Component/s: CQL
> protocol v5 duration wire format is overly complex and awkward to implement
> for clients
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-14708
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-14708
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: CQL
> Reporter: Chris Bannister
> Priority: Major
>
> Protocol V5 defines the duration type to be on the wire as months, days and
> nanoseconds. Days and months require a timezone to make sense of the duration
> and varies depending on from which they are applied for.
>
> Go defines a [duration|https://golang.org/pkg/time/#Duration] type as
> nanoseconds in int64 which can represent ~290 years. Java
> [duration|https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/time/Duration.html]
> does not have way to handle months.
>
> I suggest that before 4.0 is release the duration format is converted to just
> be represented as nanoseconds.
