I saw in many threads Tyler says that Pycassa is going to support CQL3, while there're some articles saying that pycassa doesn't support CQL3.

And I saw this piece of code in Pycassa:

def execute_cql3_query(self, query, compression, consistency):
      """ Parameters: - query - compression - consistency """
      self.send_execute_cql3_query(query, compression, consistency)
      return self.recv_execute_cql3_query()

So I'm wondering what's the status of support for CQL3. Is Pycassa able to execute CQL3 queries already? If yes, Is there any potential limitations?

Thanks!

For working with CQL3, I suggest using the newer datastax/python-driver, which I also authored: https://github.com/datastax/python-driver

I had planned to add CQL3 support to pycassa, but given that I have limited time, focusing on the new driver (which also supports the native protocol instead of Thrift) was a better choice.
