Gwen Shapira commented on SQOOP-1804:
-------------------------------------
Back to the basics, because I'm still unclear on something:
If I understood your last comment correctly (" Its upto the connector to choose
to expose whatever it needs that makes its next job run easier to perform") ,
the Output table is for use by a connector to persist data for its own re-use.
We do not intend for other connectors to use those values or for use-facing
reports to expose this.
Did I get it right?
Because both my comments were based on the assumption that we will want both
use-facing reports based on this data and also allow TO connectors to access
values placed by FROM connectors. If this is intra-connector only, my previous
comments are irrelevant.
