Jarek Jarcec Cecho commented on SQOOP-1361:
-------------------------------------------
Yup based on Java documentation it seems that {{$}} is valid character for Java
identifier. I would suggest to update the comment and leave the current method
as it is. We should clean this particular character for Avro schema though.
> When a special character like '$' is encountered in the column names then the
> Sqoop script fails
