Joydeep Sen Sarma commented on HADOOP-3982:
-------------------------------------------

Amaresh - can you clarify - is there an objection to providing a public API 
call that allows addition of jar files to jobclient? If so - why?

Not everything is a Tool. We are embedding the invocation of map-reduce job 
inside an application. That application may or may not be a tool.

> Ability to add libjars through non-commnad line path

> -libjars options is available only if the job has been submitted through 
> JobShell class. Since the function 'setCommnadLineConfig' is a protected 
> function, non mapred classes can't take advantage of this functionality. By 
> making this function public, other classes that submit jobs can utilize this 
> functionality.
