Daniel Dai commented on PIG-4160:
---------------------------------
hcat/hive jars are known to be locally, so bin/pig will pass file://xxx to Pig
to clarify.
> -forcelocaljars / -j flag when using a remote url for a script

> patch adds a -j/forcelocaljars flag which if enabled allows you to do
> pig -j -useHCatalog hdfs://myserver:8020/load/scripts/mydir/myscript.pig
> thus loading the pig script REMOTELY
> while loading the jar files LOCALLY
> One does this to avoid a single point of failure but avoid one central
> interversion dependent repository for all the jars across all teams/projects.
