public final class Classpath
extends java.lang.Object
Command-line utility for getting the full classpath needed to launch a Hadoop
client application. If the hadoop script is called with "classpath" as the
command, then it simply prints the classpath and exits immediately without
launching a JVM. The output likely will include wildcards in the classpath.
If there are arguments passed to the classpath command, then this class gets
called. With the --glob argument, it prints the full classpath with wildcards
expanded. This is useful in situations where wildcard syntax isn't usable.
With the --jar argument, it writes the classpath as a manifest in a jar file.
This is useful in environments with short limitations on the maximum command
line length, where it may not be possible to specify the full classpath in a
command. For example, the maximum command line length on Windows is 8191
characters.
