Edward Capriolo commented on HIVE-2561:
---------------------------------------
I understand the reason for wanting this because when you do not get the stuff
you need on the classpath tracing the error is hard. However with a dynamic
class loading language like Java I think marking classes with dependencies is
not the way to go. i think it is better to make the error reporting clear then
to try to make an administrative problem a coding problem.

> Often times UDFs will have dependencies to external JARs/FILEs. It makes
> sense for these to be encoded by the UDF (rather than having the caller
> remember the set of files that need to be ADDed). Let's add an annotation to
> UDFs which will cause these resources to be auto-added.
