Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-3792:
---------------------------------------------
Follow-up changes are on https://github.com/pcmanus/cassandra/commits/3792.
There is like 9 commits on top of the 3 previous ones but some are rather
small. This fixes a number of bugs and make all unit test pass.
One of the thing it does is adding a gc_grace_seconds > 0 for schema column
families. This is necessary since we now uses normal deletes. I've added a test
at https://github.com/riptano/cassandra-dtest/blob/master/schema_test.py that
fails with current 1.1.0 to show that problem. This does lead to the question
of what value to use for that gc_grace. The current patches set this to 3
months, hoping that no one will keep a node dead that long, but there is some
amount of random in that choice.
Note that following those patches, CQL still convert to and from thrift
structures to reuse ThriftValidation methods. I've created CASSANDRA-4037 to
fix that. I also think we should consider using an enumeration (or equivalent)
for the CFMetadata properties names, as reusing strings is a bit fragile, but
I'm fine leaving that to a follow up ticket.
