Hey guys, I have following Cassandra since its preliminar 0,6.X versions and develop against it from different platforms like .NET, Java and Scala.
I found it very difficult to properly configure my cassandra driver for the client application since there is no straight way to change a value without releasing a new version since it lacks the support for an external configuration file (That was the only flaw I found). Well, instead of making only a critiscm, I publish on https://github.com/javiercanillas/cassandra-driver-configurer my own configurer for datastax cassandra driver. It relies only on TypeSafe.Config structure. Feel free to take a look and use it. Any comments are welcome. PD: I will try to push it into Maven Central if you really find it useful. Cheers, Javier.
