Veena Basavaraj updated SQOOP-1901:
-----------------------------------
    Description: 
As the title suggests, we want to encourage DRY code in the new IDF 
implementations.

As the IDF api mandates CSV and object format for all its sub implementation, I 
propose we move the common functionality to the base IDF class so that JSON IDF 
or AvroIDF does not have to repeat this code.

The only parts of the code that needs to be in subclasses is how then handle 
the conversion between the "T" ( generic parameter) and the csv/ object 
representations.

I saw that http://ingest.tips/2014/12/11/sqoop-1-99-4-release/ mentions 
extensind from CSVIDF and this cannot technically work since we have the 
generic T that will be different for AvroIDF or JSON IDF

Update:

Also extending from CSVIDF seems a bit ilogical, since the IDF API says that it 
needs CSV and object Array, these functionality of converting between the two 
i.e text to object and object to text should be in base class.
