Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-4049:
-------------------------------------------
I'm a little nervous about this. Having descriptors know about only some
components feels fragile and likely to cause bugs at some point.
What if we added Custom1..Custom5 Type entries so that we're not just ignoring
them?

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4049
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Core
> Reporter: Piotr Kołaczkowski
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.0.10

> Attachments: compaction_strategy_cleanup.patch, component_patch.diff

>
> CFS compaction strategy coming up in the next DSE release needs to store some
> important information in Tombstones.db and RemovedKeys.db files, one per
> sstable. However, currently Cassandra issues warnings when these files are
> found in the data directory. Additionally, when switched to
> SizeTieredCompactionStrategy, the files are left in the data directory after
> compaction.
> The attached patch adds new components to the Component class so Cassandra
> knows about those files.
