--------------------------------------
Hey [~maugli],
I am not sure I follow you completely here.
Are you suggesting matching lower or upper or case-sensitive?
Thanks, [[email protected]]

> Key: SQOOP-3029

> Project: Sqoop
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Attila Szabo
> Fix For: 1.4.7
>
>
> The current implementation of HCatalog related export works out of the box
> with RDBMS systems (e.g. Oracle) if the column names match case sensitive,
> although in several cases the column names are received as an UPPER_CASE list
> from the RDBMS, and thus the export fails, within the ClassWriter.
> Although the users have the possibility to define the name of the columns
> explicit with the --columns option, in case of 100+ columns it's not
> practical.
> It would be great to have an option which could do the matching in lower and
> UPPER case as well. The start point for this implementation should start from
> SqoopHCatUtilities#configureHCat method with respect to ensure HCatalog api
> is able to handle the different cased column names.
