Dennis Kubes commented on HADOOP-1622:
--------------------------------------
Is there anything else I need to do with this? If this patch works for the
community I would love to get it included as it would help with some tutorials
I am writing on doing custom nutch development (plugins, etc.). If I need to
make any changes please suggest.
> Hadoop should provide a way to allow the user to specify jar file(s) the user
> job depends on

> More likely than not, a user's job may depend on multiple jars.
> Right now, when submitting a job through bin/hadoop, there is no way for the
> user to specify that.
> A walk around for that is to re-package all the dependent jars into a new jar
> or put the dependent jar files in the lib dir of the new jar.
> This walk around causes unnecessary inconvenience to the user. Furthermore,
> if the user does not own the main function
> (like the case when the user uses Aggregate, or datajoin, streaming), the
> user has to re-package those system jar files too.
> It is much desired that hadoop provides a clean and simple way for the user
> to specify a list of dependent jar files at the time
> of job submission. Someting like:
> bin/hadoop .... --depending_jars j1.jar:j2.jar
