---------------------------------------------

             Summary: Pass base table's metadata to Index.validateOptions
                 Key: CASSANDRA-10924
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10924
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Andrés de la Peña
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 3.2, 3.0.x, 3.x, 3.0.3


Some custom index implementations require the base table's metadata to validate their creation options. For example, the options of these implementations can contain information about which base table's columns are going to be indexed and how, so the implementation needs to know the existence and the type of the columns to be indexed to properly validate.

The attached patch proposes to add base table's {{CFMetaData}} to Index' optional static method to validate the custom index options:
{{public static Map<String, String> validateOptions(CFMetaData cfm, Map<String, String> options);}}
