Alex Petrov commented on CASSANDRA-11339: ----------------------------------------- I've added validation that would disallow any filtering queries. Non-filtering queries (partition key locked ones, which is a bit senseless, even though technically valid). Index queries also work. The tests for all cases, including static columns and indexes are added. |[trunk|https://github.com/ifesdjeen/cassandra/tree/11339-trunk]| > WHERE clause in SELECT DISTINCT can be ignored > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-11339 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-11339 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Components: CQL > Reporter: Philip Thompson > Assignee: Alex Petrov > Fix For: 2.1.x > > Attachments: > 0001-Add-validation-for-distinct-queries-disallowing-quer.patch > > > I've tested this out on 2.1-head. I'm not sure if it's the same behavior on > newer versions. > For a given table t, with {{PRIMARY KEY (id, v)}} the following two queries > return the same result: > {{SELECT DISTINCT id FROM t WHERE v > X ALLOW FILTERING}} > {{SELECT DISTINCT id FROM t}} > The WHERE clause in the former is silently ignored, and all id are returned, > regardless of the value of v in any row. > It seems like this has been a known issue for a while: > http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26548788/select-distinct-cql-ignores-where-clause > However, if we don't support filtering on anything but the partition key, we > should reject the query, rather than silently dropping the where clause -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
