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.
