Michael Kjellman commented on CASSANDRA-5224: --------------------------------------------- the "metadata is not defined correctly" but was a bug on my end (so you can ignore it). I hadn't gotten around to updating the bug yet. apologies. so i'm confused though, a describe table shows that the legacy table is defined in cql3 as COMPACT STORAGE, so an alter table blah add blah is doing a static cql2 table while in cql3 mode? > alter table add in CQL3 allows adding columns to COMPACT STORAGE tables > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-5224 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5224 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.2.1 > Reporter: Michael Kjellman > Assignee: Aleksey Yeschenko > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.2.2 > > > From the docs: > These additions to a table are not allowed: > Adding a column having the same name as an existing column. > Adding columns to tables defined with COMPACT STORAGE. > however, this still works against a domain defined with COMPACT STORAGE in > cqlsh > it appears that the metadata, however, is not defined correctly. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
