Pavel Yaskevich commented on CASSANDRA-2474:
--------------------------------------------
For sparse field a propose following syntax
to list exact aliases you want to include into result
{noformat}
SELECT name as (tweet_id, username|body) ....
{noformat}
if you want to return any component names ? can be used
{noformat}
SELECT name as (tweet_id, ?) ....
{noformat}
That is going to return username, body and location
> CQL support for compound columns

> For the most part, this boils down to supporting the specification of
> compound column names (the CQL syntax is colon-delimted terms), and then
> teaching the decoders (drivers) to create structures from the results.
