Hi Sandish,

I have took another look at your patch and I think there is some confusion here.

* The JIRA description says that create-hive-table tool needs to be improved to 
be able to create Parquet and Avro tables too (schema only). The problem is 
that there is a --create-hive-table option as well which is a totally different 
thing. The --create-hive-table option gets mapped to 
org.apache.sqoop.SqoopOptions#failIfHiveTableExists boolean value (which is a 
much better description) and it means that Sqoop job gets aborted if the Hive 
table already exist. I think your patch tries to address the 
--create-hive-table option so it should be done under a different JIRA.
* Based on the code you try to include 2 changes in this patch and I think they 
should be separated.
  * The first thing was the Parquet Hive table creation changes in 
TableDefWriter. The problem is that I think this code never gets executed since 
org.apache.sqoop.hive.HiveImport#importTable never gets invoked if we import 
into Parquet files. See: org/apache/sqoop/tool/ImportTool.java:539
  * The other thing is the Avro support for Hive tables. I think this part 
still needs more testing with possibly all the supported data types and codecs.

Regards,
Szabolcs
