Antonio Magnaghi commented on PIG-11:
-------------------------------------
Yes, would use the system class loader to retrieve the resource (namely the jar
file name) and see if we are able to locate it.
> Pig command - add search path for UDF .jar files

> Key: PIG-11
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-11
> Project: Pig
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: impl
> Reporter: Olga Natkovich
> Priority: Minor
>
> Add a mechanism so that invocations of:
> register my.jar;
> will search not only the local directory but a set of paths. This could
> simply be classpath.
> This will permit users to have build trees of UDFs that commonly share
> across different piglets
> without having to copy the jar locally to each directory and without
> having to use absolute
> pathnames to refer to the files.
