Xuefu Zhang commented on SPARK-5377: ------------------------------------ [~sowen], I saw you had closed this without giving any explanation. Do you mind sharing? > Dynamically add jar into Spark Driver's classpath. > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-5377 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-5377 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Spark Core > Affects Versions: 1.2.0 > Reporter: Chengxiang Li > > Spark support dynamically add jar to executor classpath through > SparkContext::addJar(), while it does not support dynamically add jar into > driver classpath. In most case(if not all the case), user dynamically add jar > with SparkContext::addJar() because some classes from the jar would be > referred in upcoming Spark job, which means the classes need to be loaded in > Spark driver side either,e.g during serialization. I think it make sense to > add an API to add jar into driver classpath, or just make it available in > SparkContext::addJar(). HIVE-9410 is a real case from Hive on Spark. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
