[jira] [Created] (CASSANDRA-5705) Disallow renaming an indexed column

Sylvain Lebresne created CASSANDRA-5705:
-------------------------------------------

             Summary: Disallow renaming an indexed column
                 Key: CASSANDRA-5705
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5705
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Sylvain Lebresne
            Assignee: Sylvain Lebresne
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.0 beta 1


We can now index CQL3 primary key parts (CASSANDRA-5125) but also allow to rename such columns. Unfortunately, since 2ndary index CF names currently depend on the name of the column they index, renaming an indexed column basically ends up dropping the index.

For now, the simplest solution is probably to just forbid renaming when the column is 2ndary indexed. If you really want to rename, you can always drop the index and recreate it after the rename.
