Stu Hood updated CASSANDRA-1186: -------------------------------- Attachment: (was: 0006-Port-Migrations-and-DefsTable-to-Avro.patch) > futureproof [KS|CF]MetaData > --------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-1186 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1186 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Core > Affects Versions: 0.7 > Reporter: Jonathan Ellis > Assignee: Stu Hood > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 0.7 > > Attachments: > 0001-Move-Yaml-related-classes-aside-to-reuse-names.patch, > 0002-Extract-Avro-generation-and-begin-generating-an-inte.patch, > 0003-Split-OutputBuffer-out-for-reuse.patch, > 0004-Add-utility-functions-for-dealing-with-Avro-serializ.patch > > > KSMetaData/CFMetaData serialization is fragile. We need to be able to add > fields easily without breaking when we read old-style serialized bytes. > Avro and Thrift are designed to handle this. We should probably use one of > those rather than re-inventing the wheel. If Avro is mature enough for this > then let's use that, otherwise let's use Thrift. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
