tmpfiles and tmpjars do not get unarchived

We noticed that files uploaded using "tmpfiles" and "tmpjars" are not unarchived somehow.
We are using hadoop 0.17.2.1.

Is there any way to automatically unarchive "tmpfiles" and "tmpjars"?

Hi Zheng,
The DistributedCache.addArchiveToClasspath call is the one that makes it get
unarchived into the temp directory. By contrast, addFileToClasspath doesn't.
I don't remember the old-style command line flag to trigger this call...
perhaps -archives or something?

Worth noting that -libjars was recently changed from addArchiveToClasspath
to addFileToClasspath

Thanks
