Aleksey Yeschenko commented on CASSANDRA-8951: ---------------------------------------------- Would it make sense to at least make them non-emptiable? I remember the issue of null in primary key columns, but I'm not sure if that's that much of a deal, or if allowing null there would be a better overall solution if it is. > Add smallint (and possibly byte) type > ------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-8951 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8951 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Sylvain Lebresne > Assignee: Benjamin Lerer > Fix For: 3.0 > > > We have {{int}} and {{bigint}}, but we don't have a {{smallint}} (2 bytes). I > see no reason not to add it. And while we're at it, it doesn't cost much to > add a {{byte}} type either. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
