CQL Driver status

[Nicholas Neuberger <nn...@gmail.com>]

I had a few questions that I couldn't easily answer by looking through many
JIRA tickets and the wiki.  We are currently developing an application based
on Cassandra 0.8.x with the CQL driver.

Does the CQL driver currently support cursor / resultsets?

I'd like to implement a pagination feature.  Currently, from what I
understand is that it uses Thrift now, and it does support pagination
through slices.

Also, what's the status of migrating away from Thrift and what will be
replacing it for communications?  I saw a few posts stating long term to
remove that dependency.


Thanks,

Nick Neuberger

There is no cursor support.

Moving away from thrift is still in the "hopefully someday" stage.
