Description

The method SecondaryIndex#removeColumnDef does not delete the requested column definition. I think this may be due to the iterator's remove method:

void removeColumnDef(ByteBuffer name)
    {
        Iterator<ColumnDefinition> it = columnDefs.iterator();
        while (it.hasNext())
        {
            if (it.next().name.bytes.equals(name))
                it.remove();
        }
    }

For me it has been problematic when deleting a per row index in a column family and then creating a new one.

I attach a patch that may solve the problem.
