Jarek Jarcec Cecho commented on SQOOP-1769:
-------------------------------------------
I've designed the {{Enum}} type as another example of nested type. E.g. I've
intentionally allowed {{Enum}} to contain Arrays for example. Looking into
examples in database engine
([PostgreSQL|http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/static/datatype-enum.html],
[Oracle|https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17952_01/refman-5.6-en/enum.html],
[MySQL|http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/enum.html]), the enum is always
based on String and hence I'm don't might the suggested changed.
> Fix Enum to no inherit from list

> Enum holds a set of options it supports, but anytime Enum will be just a
> single value.
> So it inherting from ListType and having a listType is wrong
