Pratik Khadloya commented on SQOOP-1456:
----------------------------------------

I see that JDBC does not provide this feature. Am not sure if this is doable as sqoop relies on JDBC.

>   id int(10) NOT NULL auto_increment COMMENT 'unique ID for each foo entry',
>   bar varchar(255) default NULL COMMENT 'the bar of the foo',
>   ....
> );
> {code}
