Alex Petrov commented on CASSANDRA-12060: ----------------------------------------- In this case I think 3.x behaviour is correct: when using {{UPDATE ... IF }}, it returns the {{[applied]}} column and existing values that caused the transaction to fail, whereas 2.x returns just {{[applied]}} with {{false}}. We can leave the 2.x behaviour unchanged and introduce special-case in dtests or make a 2-line fix for 2.x like {code} for (Composite prefix : conditions.keySet()) { if (prefix.isStatic() && conditions.size() == 1) slices[i++] = new ColumnSlice(Composites.EMPTY, Composites.EMPTY); else slices[i++] = prefix.slice(); } {code} > Establish consistent distinction between non-existing partition and NULL > value for LWTs on static columns > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-12060 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-12060 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Alex Petrov > Assignee: Alex Petrov > > When executing following CQL commands: > {code} > CREATE KEYSPACE test WITH replication = {'class': 'NetworkTopologyStrategy', > 'datacenter1': '1' }; > USE test; > CREATE TABLE testtable (a int, b int, s1 int static, s2 int static, v int, > PRIMARY KEY (a, b)); > INSERT INTO testtable (a,b,s1,s2,v) VALUES (2,2,2,null,2); > DELETE s1 FROM testtable WHERE a = 2 IF s2 IN (10,20,30); > {code} > The output is different between {{2.x}} and {{3.x}}: > 2.x: > {code} > cqlsh:test> DELETE s1 FROM testtable WHERE a = 2 IF s2 = 5; > [applied] | s2 > -----------+------ > False | null > {code} > 3.x: > {code} > cqlsh:test> DELETE s1 FROM testtable WHERE a = 2 IF s2 = 5; > [applied] > ----------- > False > {code} > {{2.x}} would although return same result if executed on a partition that > does not exist at all: > {code} > cqlsh:test> DELETE s1 FROM testtable WHERE a = 5 IF s2 = 5; > [applied] > ----------- > False > {code} > It _might_ be related to static column LWTs, as I could not reproduce same > behaviour with non-static column LWTs. The most recent change was > [CASSANDRA-10532], which enabled LWT operations on static columns with > partition keys only. -Another possible relation is [CASSANDRA-9842], which > removed distinction between {{null}} column and non-existing row.- (striked > through since same happens on pre-[CASSANDRA-9842] code. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
