Ryan King updated CASSANDRA-1205: --------------------------------- Fix Version/s: (was: 0.8) 1.0 > Unify Partitioners and AbstractTypes > ------------------------------------ > > Key: CASSANDRA-1205 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1205 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Stu Hood > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 1.0 > > > There is no good reason for Partitioners to have different semantics than > AbstractTypes. Instead, we should probably have 2 partitioners: Random and > Ordered, where the Ordered partitioner requires an AbstractType to be > specified, defaulting to BytesType. > One solution [suggested by > jbellis|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-767?focusedCommentId=12841565&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12841565] > is to have AbstractType generate a collation id (essentially, a Token) for a > set of bytes. > Looking forward, we should probably consider laying the groundwork to add > native support for compound row keys here as well. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
