[jira] [Updated] (HADOOP-12747) support wildcard in libjars argument

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12747?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Sangjin Lee updated HADOOP-12747:
---------------------------------
       Resolution: Fixed
     Hadoop Flags: Reviewed
    Fix Version/s: 3.0.0-alpha2
                   2.9.0
     Release Note: It is now possible to specify multiple jar files for the libjars argument using a wildcard. For example, you can specify "-libjars 'libs/*'" as a shorthand for all jars in the libs directory.
           Status: Resolved  (was: Patch Available)

Committed. Thanks [~cnauroth], [~jira.shegalov], and [~vicaya] for your reviews and comments.

> There is a problem when a user job adds too many dependency jars in their command line. The HADOOP_CLASSPATH part can be addressed, including using wildcards (\*). But the same cannot be done with the -libjars argument. Today it takes only fully specified file paths.
> We may want to consider supporting wildcards as a way to help users in this situation. The idea is to handle it the same way the JVM does it: \* expands to the list of jars in that directory. It does not traverse into any child directory.
> Also, it probably would be a good idea to do it only for libjars (i.e. don't do it for -files and -archives).
