Scott Carey commented on MAPREDUCE-1700:
----------------------------------------
Putting user jars before/after the application dependencies doesn't actually
solve the problem.
* The conflict might require a user jar that is not compatible with one needed
by the framework, either order breaks something
* The user might override a system jar and alter functionality in a way that
breaks the framework, or subverts security.
Both the host container and the user code need to be able to be certain of what
code they are executing without stepping on each other's toes. This is _not
possible_ with one classpath.

> If user code has a dependency on a version of a JAR that is different to the
> one that happens to be used by Hadoop, then it may not work correctly. This
> happened with user code using a different version of Avro, as reported
> [here|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-493?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12852081#action_12852081].
> The problem is analogous to the one that application servers have with WAR
> loading. Using a specialized classloader in the Child JVM is probably the way
> to solve this.
