Jason Dere commented on HIVE-860:
---------------------------------

Does this work for jars on HDFS that have been added using the ADD JAR 
functionality? The metastore function work in HIVE-6380 would end up doing 
using the same mechanism to add jars from HDFS that would be needed for 
metastore UDFs.

So when a non-local jar is added by a session, it gets copied locally to the 
session resource directory.  But if the local copy of the jar has the same file 
name/md5 hash/mtime as what is already saved in the user's distributed cache, 
then this should work right?

> DistributedCache is shared across multiple jobs, if the hdfs file name is the 
> same.
> We need to make sure Hive put the same file into the same location every time 
> and do not overwrite if the file content is the same.
> We can achieve 2 different results:
> A1. Files added with the same name, timestamp, and md5 in the same session 
> will have a single copy in distributed cache.
> A2. Filed added with the same name, timestamp, and md5 will have a single 
> copy in distributed cache.
> A2 has a bigger benefit in sharing but may raise a question on when Hive 
> should clean it up in hdfs.
