Edward Capriolo commented on CASSANDRA-6147:
--------------------------------------------

This won't work ;( So only insert can have auto-timestamps.

I am not sure if there is a language that can benefit from optional, java can't 
and python cant.

>
> Thrift users are still forced to generate timestamps on the client side. 
> Currently the way the thrift bindings are generated users are forced to 
> supply timestamps. There are two solutions I see.
> * -1 as timestamp means "generate on the server side"
> This is a breaking change, for those using -1 as a timestamp (which should 
> effectively be no one.
> * Prepare yourself....
> Our thrift signatures are wrong, you can't overload methods in thrift
> thrift.get(byte [], byte[], ts) 
> should REALLY be changed to 
> GetRequest g =  new GetRequest()
> g.setName()
> g.setValue()
> g.setTs() ///optional 
> thrift. get( g )
> I know no one is going to want to make this change because thrift is 
> quasi/dead but it would allow us to evolve thrift in a meaningful way. We 
> could simple add these new methods under different names as well.
