It's a column whose content represents a distributed counter.

Re: Counter Column family Cassandra 0.8 PHP Support ?

[aaron morton]

I'm not a php type person, but I can help a little with thrift.

Install thrift 0.6 and then run this in the interface/ directory of the 
cassandra source...

thrift --gen php cassandra.thrift

You should end up with the interface/gen-php/ 

Hope that helps.

 I am using counters to read the counts on my website dynamically. I am 
 looking for phpcassandra client(?) that supports counters natively. I was 
 looking if any PHP developer could give me a lead in generating the PHP 
 client code required using thrift.
 
 Thanks in advance!
