Problems with user defined types (cql) and Datastax Java Driver

[Andreas Finke]

Hi,

I encountered the problem that in Java the Session does not create a valid 
UserType for my corresponding CQL user defined type.

CQL_SCHEMA:

create keyspace if not exists quotes
WITH replication = { 'class' : 'SimpleStrategy', 'replication_factor' : 1 };

CREATE TYPE IF NOT EXISTS quotes.price (
                value double,
                size bigint,
                timestamp bigint,
                delay int
);

JAVA

UserType priceType = 
session.getCluster().getMetadata().getKeyspace("quotes").getUserType("price");
Assert.assertNotNull(priceType); // true
Assert.assertEquals("price", priceType.getTypeName()); // true
Assert.assertEquals(4, priceType.getFieldNames().size()); // 
AssertionFailedError: expected:<4> but was:<0>

I am testing with Cassandra v.2.1.2 on Windows using Datastax Java Driver 2.1.2.

I am thankful for any suggestions.

Regards
Andi
