Connecting to Cassandra does not ask for credentials

[krishnanand]

I have been trying to set up a cassandra cluster and keyspace using Apache-Gora Cassandra mapping but the operation repeatedly fails as the my cassandra db requires a username and password. I am using https://gora.apache.org/current/gora-cassandra.html for set up.

Looking at the source code, I can see that the no authentication credentials are being passed ThriftKeyspaceDefinition.
https://github.com/hector-client/hector/blob/master/core/src/main/java/me/prettyprint/cassandra/service/AbstractCluster.java#L130

My stack trace is given below. I would appreciate any assistance on how to resolve this issue. I am using gora-cassandra-0.3 that depends on hector-client 1.1.0. From the dep tree
