Jim Donofrio reopened PIG-3563:
-------------------------------
That works but it is not a very clean solution. UDF's should be able to add
archives to the distributed cache as they do currently with files. Your
solution forces users of a UDF's to have to know to add the archive explicitly
to use the UDF instead of letting the UDF handle it for them
> support adding archives to the distributed cache

> Priority: Minor
> Labels: distributed_cache

> Support adding archives to the distributed cache by calling
> DistributedCacheFile.addCacheArchive instead of addCacheFile in
> JobControlCompiler.setupDistributedCache for common archive endings: .zip,
> .tgz, .tar.gz, .tar which are the extensions checked in downloadCacheObject
