Greetings.
On this document: http://cassandra.apache.org/doc/cql3/CQL.html#updateStmt …I read, under UPDATE section, that: "The c = c + 3 form of <assignment> is used to increment/decrement counters. The identifier after the ‘=’ sign must be the same than the one before the ‘=’ sign (Only increment/decrement is supported on counters, not the assignment of a specific value)." On C* 1.2.1 I see that the following query works: update counters set value=value+5 where owner_id='1' and counter_type='trash'; ...while the following one gives an error (Bad Request: Invalid non-counter operation on counter table): update counters set value=5 where owner_id='1' and counter_type='trash'; In C* 1.2.2. the latter started to work. Beside the fact that this is Great(™), is this something planned and I missed something ? And, more important, wouldn't be a Great(™) idea to allow direct setting of counters in INSERT too, with the side effect of making COPY FROM works even for counters table ? I am about to open a ticket on Jira, but before doing this I want to be sure I didn't miss anything.
