---------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
> Update HCatalog version to 0.13 in Sqoop builds
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SQOOP-1323
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-1323
> Project: Sqoop
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Affects Versions: 1.4.4
> Reporter: Venkat Ranganathan
> Assignee: Venkat Ranganathan
> Fix For: 1.4.5
>
>
> We need to update the HCatalog version that we support for Sqoop builds to be
> 0.13.0 to support all the Hive Datatypes with HCatalog
> Since the hcatalog packages have moved from org.apache.hcatalog to
> org.apache.hive.hcatalog, this will be a backward compatibility breaking
> change. Hive had deprecated the packages in 0.11 and has removed them in
> 0.13.1. Also, the enhancements for hive datatype parity is only available
> with the new packages.
> While this would mean that we will not be able to build with older hive
> versions, the metastore client is backward compatible, so newer Sqoop will
> still be able to access older hive (but we have to provide the Hive 0.13
> libraries to Hive on the client node)
