Failed to use sqoop-1.4.3 job tool on hadoop-2.1.0-beta

[sam liu]

Hi Experts,

My cluster is hadoop-2.1.0-beta and it requires hsqldb-2.0.0.jar. At the
same time, my sqoop is 1.4.3, and it requires hsqldb-1.8.0.10.jar.

Now I failed to run sqoop-1.4.3 job tool($SQOOP_HOME/bin/sqoop job --list)
agains hadoop-2.1.0-beta:
1) If I use hsqldb-2.0.0.jar in my env, the exception will be:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:

2) If I use hsqldb-1.8.0.10.jar in my env, the exception will be:

Is it a defect of Sqoop?

Thanks!
