org.apache.cassandra.db
Class ExpiringColumn

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.cassandra.db.Column
      org.apache.cassandra.db.ExpiringColumn

All Implemented Interfaces:

IColumn

public class ExpiringColumn
extends Column

Alternative to Column that have an expiring time. ExpiringColumn is immutable (as Column is). Note that ExpiringColumn does not override Column.getMarkedForDeleteAt, which means that it's in the somewhat unintuitive position of being deleted (after its expiration) without having a time-at-which-it-became-deleted. (Because ttl is a server-side measurement, we can't mix it with the timestamp field, which is client-supplied and whose resolution we can't assume anything about.)
