Benjamin Lerer commented on CASSANDRA-8365:
-------------------------------------------
I had a look at the code. In 2.0 the index names are case sensitive and quoted
names are not supported but the behavior is consistent between create and drop
statement. I tested the example mentioned in the description and I was able to
delete the index successfully.
If we change the code for 2.0 we might introduce some problems for the users
with existing indices. They will suddently have to quote some of their index
names to be able to drop them.
I would be in favor of letting 2.0 as such and fixing only 2.1+ where the
behavior is really broken.

> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Pierre Laporte

> Priority: Minor

> In cqlsh, when I execute a CREATE INDEX FooBar ... statement, the CamelCase
> name is used as index name, even though it is unquoted. Trying to quote the
> index name results in a syntax error.
> However, when I try to delete the index, I have to quote the index name,
> otherwise I get an invalid-query error telling me that the index (lowercase)
> does not exist.
> This seems inconsistent. Shouldn't the index name be lowercased before the
> index is created ?
> Here is the code to reproduce the issue :
> {code}
> cqlsh:schemabuilderit> CREATE TABLE IndexTest (a int primary key, b int);
> cqlsh:schemabuilderit> CREATE INDEX FooBar on indextest (b);
> cqlsh:schemabuilderit> DESCRIBE TABLE indextest ;
> CREATE TABLE schemabuilderit.indextest (
> a int PRIMARY KEY,
> b int
> ) ........;
> CREATE INDEX FooBar ON schemabuilderit.indextest (b);
> cqlsh:schemabuilderit> DROP INDEX FooBar;
> code=2200 [Invalid query] message="Index 'foobar' could not be found in any
> of the tables of keyspace 'schemabuilderit'"
> {code}
