> SENTRY-2252 added code to put the role and user types as categories. These are called 'entities' or 'entity' for the singular. However, Hive uses 'principal'. Like PrincipalType.ROLE and PrincipalType.USER. And change EntityName to PrincipalName. The changes should cover both java class and thrift generated types.
> We should use the same naming convention of the ROLE and USER category to avoid confusions.
