Jarek Jarcec Cecho commented on SQOOP-1191:
-------------------------------------------
Thank you all for sharing your thoughts and discussing the alternatives! While
working on SQOOP-1190, I've realized that using Shims is not the best approach,
but the workarounds seems to be quite complex as Sqoop itself do not have any
shim layer at the moment. So I've decided to go with a reflection. The code
itself will be called only in local mode and only on Hadoop 1, so I believe
that the reflection overhead is quite negligible.
