use of static method/variables in the codebase

[Asif Jan]

Hi

Being a novice to the cassandra project, I have a question. I see a  
lots of code in cassandra uses static methods/members. Was/Is this a  
design choice ?


The only implication for users like me is that it is slightly  
difficult to debug the code specially when you want to follow the  
interaction between different components etc.


cheers
