register directive should accept files and directories as well as jar files
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: PIG-1242
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1242
Project: Pig
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Woody Anderson
Priority: Minor
often i want to get files into the classpath (that are not necessarily .class
files), and shipped to the mappers.
i can manually do this by jar'ing the file or dir and registering said jar, but
it would be much simpler and more effective for pig to support this directly
(as it unpacks said jar internally anyway).
it should have entirely the same semantic that register already has, but it
should accept files/dirs that are not jar files.
