Adam Holmberg commented on CASSANDRA-10390: ------------------------------------------- Help me out. Why is '.' being considered valid in these identifiers? https://cassandra.apache.org/doc/cql3/CQL.html#identifiers I don't think "my.field" matches {{\[a-zA-Z]\[a-zA-Z0-9_]*.}} > inconsistent quoted identifier handling in UDTs > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-10390 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10390 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Environment: 2.2.1 > Reporter: Jonathan Halliday > Assignee: Sam Tunnicliffe > Fix For: 2.2.x > > > > create keyspace test with replication = {'class': 'SimpleStrategy', > > 'replication_factor': 1 } ; > > create type if not exists mytype ("my.field" text); > > desc keyspace; -- observe that mytype is listed > > create table mytable (pk int primary key, myfield frozen<mytype>); > > desc keyspace; -- observe that mytype is listed, but mytable is not. > > select * from mytable; > ValueError: Type names and field names can only contain alphanumeric > characters and underscores: 'my.field' > create table myothertable (pk int primary key, "my.field" text); > select * from myothertable; -- valid > huh? It's valid to create a field of a table, or a field of a type, with a > quoted name containing non-alpha chars, but it's not valid to use a such a > type in a table? I can just about live with that though it seems > unnecessarily restrictive, but allowing creation of such a table and then > making it invisible/unusable definitely seems wrong. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
