Regarding Comparator Types

[Nishanth Prasad]

hi all, 

I am new to cassandra and using the following version for my application.

cassandra===>apache-cassandra-0.8.6

GUI=========> cassandra-gui-0.8.0-beta1

hector======> hector-core-0.8.0-2.tgz

I want to insert the value of type integer, double, date, datetime ( as of mySql) ... how can i achieve this using this version of hector where there is no double, date, datetime data type...

Please do the needful... 

Thanks in advance...

There are double and date types:

One thing that isn't obvious from the documentation is that the
integer, long, etc are SIGNED types.

According to the most recent change in 1.0.0 rc2 there's another Int32Type

FYI if you're going to use generic programming techniques - aka using mixed types for mutator, you can always use ByteType serializer.
