Description

StreamingJob does not currently allow a libjars option although it does have comparable options for file -> cacheFile and archive -> cacheArchive. This improvement adds a libjars option to the StreamJob which takes a comma separated list of jars to include in the streaming job. Jars are unjarred and added to the classes of the streaming job.
