[jira] [Commented] (CASSANDRA-13994) Remove dead compact storage code before 4.0 release

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-13994?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17177109#comment-17177109 ] 

Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-13994:
----------------------------------------------

Available again so did a review pass on the last version.

And that last version looks good to me. I just gathered a few last nits/minor suggestions in [this commit|https://github.com/pcmanus/cassandra/commits/C-13994-review]. Which is mostly cleaning a few minor things and updating/adding comments. The only 2 real 'code changes' there are:
* in {{CassandraIndex#indexCfsMetadata}}, the leftover special case for keys index felt more cleanly handled now by overriding the {{CassandraIndexFunctions#addIndexClusteringColumns}} method, which this commit does.
* we were checking/throwing for unsupported flags both in {{TableMetadata}} ctor and in {{SchemaKeyspace#fetchTable}}, and this with different messages, but the latter calls the former in all cases, so I simplified a bit keeping only the {{TableMetadata}} ctor case.

But those are all minor suggestions so whether you keep them or not, +1 from me (assuming CI is still clean on this obviously).

> 4.0 comes without thrift (after [CASSANDRA-11115]) and COMPACT STORAGE (after [CASSANDRA-10857]), and since Compact Storage flags are now disabled, all of the related functionality is useless.
> There are still some things to consider:
> 1. One of the system tables (built indexes) was compact. For now, we just added {{value}} column to it to make sure it's backwards-compatible, but we might want to make sure it's just a "normal" table and doesn't have redundant columns.
> 2. Compact Tables were building indexes in {{KEYS}} mode. Removing it is trivial, but this would mean that all built indexes will be defunct. We could log a warning for now and ask users to migrate off those for now and completely remove it from future releases. It's just a couple of classes though.
