So, the reflection path is the way to go. But [~sushanth] suggested that we wait until the next round of changes to package naming goes in to do this as the old packages will be deprecated. Since it is for 0.12+ releases, I would suggest to wait for those changes to go in > Explore alternatives to using the HCatalog Shim layer > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SQOOP-1191 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-1191 > Project: Sqoop > Issue Type: Task > Components: hive-integration > Reporter: Arvind Prabhakar > > In SQOOP-1190 [~ekoifman] points out: > bq.
