Jaroslav Kamenik commented on CASSANDRA-11805: ---------------------------------------------- I do not want delete it, I want to update val to null and I do not know now if it dissapear or not. It seems little, ehm, unexpected, to me:). So should I always reinsert null in such case? > Row deleted when value updated to null > -------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-11805 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-11805 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Core > Environment: C* 3.5, both single node and cluster, C* 3.6 snapshot > single node > Reporter: Jaroslav Kamenik > > It seems that the behaviour of the value update to null differs when row is > created by insert or update. When it is inserted the row stays and the value > is null, when updated the row is deleted. > Simple example: > Inserts: > create table aaa (a ascii, b ascii, c ascii, primary key (a,b)); > insert into aaa (a,b,c) values ('a','b','c'); > insert into aaa (a,b,c) values ('a','c','d'); > insert into aaa (a,b,c) values ('a','d','e'); > select * from aaa; > a | b | c > ---+---+--- > a | b | c > a | c | d > a | d | e > update aaa set c = null where a='a' and b='b'; > select * from aaa; > a | b | c > ---+---+------ > a | b | null > a | c | d > a | d | e > Updates: > create table bbb (a ascii, b ascii, c ascii, primary key (a,b)); > update bbb set c = 'c' where a='a' and b='b'; > update bbb set c = 'd' where a='a' and b='c'; > update bbb set c = 'e' where a='a' and b='d'; > select * from bbb; > a | b | c > ---+---+--- > a | b | c > a | c | d > a | d | e > update bbb set c = null where a='a' and b='b'; > select * from bbb; > a | b | c > ---+---+--- > a | c | d > a | d | e -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
