Andras Salamon commented on OOZIE-2949:
---------------------------------------

Thanks [~gezapeti] for checking the patch. I'll address your comments in my 
next patch.

Yes, it changes the default behaviour which is not too good. I think it might 
cause problems if someone really wanted to use the {{command}} options. For 
instance this is a sample from Sqoop documentation (escaped by backspace 
enclosed by double quote):
{noformat}
sqoop import --fields-terminated-by , --escaped-by \\ --enclosed-by '\"' ...
{noformat}
In the old verson if you really wanted to use a single command you could 
specify as the following:
{noformat}
sqoop import --fields-terminated-by , --escaped-by \ --enclosed-by "
{noformat}
This will no longer work in the new version.

> The current behavior of the Sqoop action is:
> {noformat}
> The Sqoop command can be specified either using the command element or 
> multiple arg elements.
> When using the command element, Oozie will split the command on every space 
> into multiple arguments.
> When using the arg elements, Oozie will pass each argument value as an 
> argument to Sqoop.
> {noformat}
> This prevents the user to simply copy-paste the command worked in the shell 
> into the workflow.xml.
> We should split the <command> field by taking quotes into account, similar to 
> what OOZIE-2391
> did for the Spark action's <spark-opts> field.
