Jonathan Ellis updated CASSANDRA-4755:
--------------------------------------

I think I'd prefer just converting that code to use a CQL query or two, all it cares about is "is this ks/cf pair valid," which isn't a big deal to fix.

Side note: looks like some code duplication in BulkLoader.ExternalClient and BulkRecordWriter.External client, be nice to clean that up.

> Currently the bulk loader uses thrift to get the schema and validate it before bulk loading a cf. Since we stopped returning cql3 cfs through describe_keyspaces, the bulk loader will be unable to load those cfs.
> If we figure out/add a way to validate the schema over jmx, we could use that for getting token ranges as well and drop thrift completely from the bulk loader.
> Another option might be querying system tables manually to validate things.
