Hi,
If i a create a table with CQL3 as
create table user(user_id text PRIMARY KEY, first_name text, last_name
text, emailid text);
and create index as:
create index on user(first_name);
then inserted some data as:
insert into user(user_id,first_name,last_name,"emailId")
values('@mevivs','vivek','mishra','vivek.mis...@impetus.co.in');
Then if update same column family using Cassandra-cli as:
update column family user with key_validation_class='UTF8Type' and
column_metadata=[{column_name:last_name, validation_class:'UTF8Type',
index_type:KEYS},{column_name:first_name, validation_class:'UTF8Type',
index_type:KEYS}];
Now if i connect via cqlsh and explore user table, i can see column
first_name,last_name are not part of table structure anymore. Here is the
output:
CREATE TABLE user (
key text PRIMARY KEY
) WITH
bloom_filter_fp_chance=0.010000 AND
caching='KEYS_ONLY' AND
comment='' AND
dclocal_read_repair_chance=0.000000 AND
gc_grace_seconds=864000 AND
read_repair_chance=0.100000 AND
replicate_on_write='true' AND
populate_io_cache_on_flush='false' AND
compaction={'class': 'SizeTieredCompactionStrategy'} AND
compression={'sstable_compression': 'SnappyCompressor'};
cqlsh:cql3usage> select * from user;
user_id

I understand that, CQL3 and thrift interoperability is an issue. But this
looks to me a very basic scenario.
Any suggestions? Or If anybody can explain a reason behind this?
