> When importing into HBase the toString() method is called on every field via the ToStringPutTransformer class.
> When the field is mapped as a BigDecimal - as it is with number fields in Oracle - this results in inconsistent formats in HBase.
> For example - create the following in Oracle:
> CREATE TABLE employee(id number primary key, test_number number);
> INSERT INTO employee values(1, 0.000001);
> INSERT INTO employee values(2, 0.0000001);
> COMMIT;
> Then run an import:
> sqoop import --connect jdbc:oracle:thin:@//HOSTNAME/SERVICE --username USERNAME --table EMPLOYEE --password PASSWORD --hbase-table EMPLOYEE --column-family tst --hbase-create-table
> The value for row 1 is "0.000001" while row 2 is "1E-7".
