Being able to add jars from the command line seems like a useful thing
to be able to do. I've created https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1226
to track this.

I would love to be able to register jars when starting the

is exactly what I need. I think we just need to create a -r switch
in Main
that calls pigContext.addJar(). Is this right?
Thanks,

Alan,
Thanks for the clarification. This thread raises an important
issue. I think
it would be worthwhile to be able to set up some mechanism for
setting up a
"script environment." Maybe an option to be able to register jars
on the
command line or maybe some way of including/requiring dummy scripts
(with
register commands) as part of other scripts. Thoughts?

Putting the jars on your classpath works as long as the classes
you need
are directly referenced in your script. So:
B = foreach A generate com.mycompany.myudf($0);
If myudf is in a jar somewhere in your classpath then it will be
picked up.
If myudf depends on the class myudfsupport which is also in a jar
on your
classpath, myudfsupport will not be picked up. It must be
explicitly
registered.

What I want to do is register the jar WITHOUT register. That is,
when I
issue my pig commandline call to start pig, it will register it
at that
point rather than in my pig script.
This will save our users from all having to register 3 or 4 jars
that
they
always will need to use pig effectively on our Hadoop cluster.
Thanks,

Hi All,
We have a use-case where we want to automatically register
certain jars
for
command-line users. I tried using –jar, but this switch seems
to do
absolutely nothing.
How do we go about auto-registering jars using pig? Any help
is much
appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Chris
