Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-4173: ------------------------------------------- Does CQL2 support double quotes? If so, switching to doublequotes everywhere may be simpler. > cqlsh: in cql3 mode, use cql3 quoting when outputting cql > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-4173 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4173 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Tools > Affects Versions: 1.1.0 > Reporter: paul cannon > Assignee: paul cannon > Priority: Minor > Labels: cql3, cqlsh > > when cqlsh needs to output a column name or other term which needs quoting > (say, if you run DESCRIBE KEYSPACE and some column name has a space in it), > it currently only knows how to quote in the cql2 way. That is, > {noformat} > cqlsh:foo> describe columnfamily bar > CREATE COLUMNFAMILY bar ( > a int PRIMARY KEY, > 'b c' text > ) WITH > ... > {noformat} > cql3 does not recognize single quotes around column names, or columnfamily or > keyspace names either. cqlsh ought to learn how to use double-quotes instead > when in cql3 mode. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
