I am not debating CONDITIONS are not useful. They are advanced rules that might need this support. Simple things should be simple to do. Complex things should be possible. Such platforms solve the 80%(simple) and the 20% ( complex) cases well. If I have a case to just mark a particular field optional or even better just set a default value and tell the user that if not specified we will defalt to this it makes it simpler. This is something UI form and inputs follow as a pattern since ages.! > Sqoop2: Enhance the connector/ driver config input options for better usability > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SQOOP-1644 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-1644 > Project: Sqoop > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Veena Basavaraj > Assignee: Veena Basavaraj > Fix For: 2.0.0 > > > The goal is to have much better user experience when user has to fill out the values for config inputs in the UI/ shell client. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
