Flink Client use remote app jar

[Theofilos Kakantousis]

Hi everyone,

Flink 0.10.1
Hadoop 2.4.0
Fairly new to Flink here, so my question might be simple but couldn't 
find something relevant in the docs. I am implementing a Flink client 
that submits jobs to a Flink Yarn cluster. At the moment I am using the 
Client and PackagedProgram classes which are working fine, however the 
latter expects the job jar to be available locally so that the Client 
can submit it to the Flink Yarn cluster.

Is it possible to use a job jar that is already stored in the HDFS of 
the cluster where Flink is running on, without first copying it locally 
to where the Client is?

Thank you,
Theofilos
