Ed Anuff commented on CASSANDRA-2231: ------------------------------------- Am I correct in that the v3 rebased to .8 doesn't include the decompose() methods? I had to add those to get the v3 patch to build. Once I did that, it passed the unit tests. > Add CompositeType comparer to the comparers provided in > org.apache.cassandra.db.marshal > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-2231 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2231 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Contrib > Reporter: Ed Anuff > Assignee: Sylvain Lebresne > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 0.8.1 > > Attachments: > 0001-Add-compositeType-and-DynamicCompositeType-v2.patch, > 0001-Add-compositeType-and-DynamicCompositeType-v3.patch, > 0001-Add-compositeType-and-DynamicCompositeType_0.7.patch, > CompositeType-and-DynamicCompositeType.patch, > edanuff-CassandraCompositeType-1e253c4.zip > > > CompositeType is a custom comparer that makes it possible to create > comparable composite values out of the basic types that Cassandra currently > supports, such as Long, UUID, etc. This is very useful in both the creation > of custom inverted indexes using columns in a skinny row, where each column > name is a composite value, and also when using Cassandra's built-in secondary > index support, where it can be used to encode the values in the columns that > Cassandra indexes. One scenario for the usage of these is documented here: > http://www.anuff.com/2010/07/secondary-indexes-in-cassandra.html.
