Veena Basavaraj commented on SQOOP-1646:
----------------------------------------
This is for sqoop2 connector api to specify inputs. One common use case is
when we have booleans and it is easy to specify default values in the code by
the connector developer.
For example
@Input(defaultTo="true")
public Boolean shouldClearStageTable;

> Support a default attribute on the Input for better usability

> For some of the input values in configs it is nice to have the default values
> in the code when the connector creates the inputs, so they dont have to be
> filled in from the user when not necessary to do so
> {code}
> public @interface Input {
> String defaultsTo() default "";
> ...
> }
> {code}
