Veena Basavaraj commented on SQOOP-1821:
----------------------------------------
#1. common.loader does not work, the only way to get this working today is hack
to add new connector in the sqoop war.
#2, yes instantiating connector from parent ClassLoader will fail on missing
dependencies that are in the child ClassLoader ...
I was leaning more towards the option you give as well [~jarcec] and completely
get rid of the current way since it only leads to confusion and does not work.
I will explore others if any as well.
This should be fixed ASAP to allow new connector contributions.
