["Ryan McGuire (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7028?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14078444#comment-14078444 ] 

Ryan McGuire commented on CASSANDRA-7028:
-----------------------------------------

Is it possible to backport this 2.1? Even if there's a reason we don't want to include it in the released version, it would be good to apply the patch and start testing it on cassci.

I tried wiggle and couldn't get it to apply.

> antlr 3.2 has a problem with java 8, as described here: http://bugs.java.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=8015656
> updating to antlr 3.5.2 solves this, however they have split up the jars differently, which adds some changes, but also the generation of CqlParser.java causes a method to be too large, so i needed to split that method to reduce the size of it.
> (patch against trunk)
