Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-366:
-------------------------------------

> a Manifest in the JAR is th standard way of doing this

I'd guess there are far more war files with jars in lib directories in the 
world than there are executable jar files with external jars named in the 
manifest.  The latter is much more fragile.

> Should be able to specify more than one jar into a JobConf file

> A job should be able to specify more than one jar file into its JobConf file 
> because sometimes custom Map and Reduce classes or just InputFormat classes 
> uses objects coming from other jar files. For now, we have to build a unique 
> jar to make Hadoop mapreduce operations works.
