Just for my education, are you saying you can pass in the entire lib folder to the setJar() thing? i wasn't aware of this, the javadoc for this method doesn't imply that. But if that's the case, it should be technically equivalent to iterating thru lib folder and add jars there manually thru DistributedCache. There's no difference from user's point of view, they never get to modify the driver code, we do.
