I am developing an application for data syncing between Hive and Teradata.
For this I am using sqoop in embedded mode, i.e. I have added sqoop as a jar in the classpath and use Sqoop.runTool(..) to execute the operation.
However on eclipse it is marked as deprecated. I using version 1.4.2 and could not find any information on this.
I’m currently using it anyway but it would be better if somebody could provide some information as to why it is deprecated and what could be done about it?
what precise class are you using? There are currently two Sqoop classes:
Sqoop was historically developed mainly at cloudera and it got moved under Apache later (during version 1.3.0). During incubation (before version 1.4.0) we moved all the functionality from cloudera namespace into apache namespace. We’ve provided classes in cloudera namespace to keep backward compatibility, but we marked them as deprecated.
