[jira] [Commented] (CASSANDRA-6305) cqlsh support for User Types

["Aleksey Yeschenko (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6305?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13893367#comment-13893367 ] 

Aleksey Yeschenko commented on CASSANDRA-6305:
----------------------------------------------

Mostly LGTM, although I'm really not a fan of running _refresh_utype_dict() after every command. Can we only trigger it upon failing to find a user type in the dictionary and ALTER/CREATE/DROP type, etc.? Obviously it's not bulletproof, since schema changes can come from anywhere at any time, but neither is the current solution.

With CASSANDRA-6307 though, we'd just be able to listen to schema change events and react accordingly.

> We need cqlsh support for several things:
> 1. Autocomplete for UPDATE/INSERT/SELECT
> 2. Autocomplete for ALTER TYPE/CREATE TYPE/DROP TYPE
> 3. Proper decoding of UserType values (currently showing the encoded blob)
> 4. Support UserTypes in DESCRIBE
> 5. Separate DESCRIBE TYPES|TYPE <name> cmds
