+Prints the class path needed to get the Hadoop jar and the required libraries. 
If called without arguments, then prints the classpath set up by the command 
scripts, which is likely to contain wildcards in the classpath entries. 
Additional options print the classpath after wildcard expansion or write the 
classpath into the manifest of a jar file. The latter is useful in environments 
where wildcards cannot be used and the expanded classpath exceeds the maximum 
supported command line length.
