[teiid-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (TEIID-4853) Google translator does not allow update of empty String type cell

[Steven Hawkins (JIRA)]

Steven Hawkins resolved TEIID-4853.
-----------------------------------
    Resolution: Rejected


See https://teiid.gitbooks.io/documents/content/reference/Google_Spreadsheet_Translator.html google does not allow us to properly differentiate between empty and null values in all circumstances, so the logic will throw an exception in ambiguous situations.
