[jira] Commented: (CASSANDRA-736) time to add first-class thrift methods for the string meta queries?

["Stu Hood (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-736?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12830806#action_12830806 ] 

Stu Hood commented on CASSANDRA-736:
------------------------------------

> the ranges are represent as a comma-separated string of left_token, right_token
This won't work for OPP, since StringToken may contain commas. To get around the Thrift map restriction, you could use a list of key-value pairs instead? Also, you may want to just treat tokens as opaque binaries.

> I'd like to add these with a c_ (or system_? or meta_?) prefix, to make clear that clients who just want to insert and update stuff don't need to care about it.
> currently get_string_property provides
> "cluster name"
> "config file" [I think we should get rid of this one]
> "token map"
> "version"
> get_string_list_property provides
> "keyspaces"
