I can\'t find a single example of submitting a Hadoop job that does not use the deprecated JobConf class. JobClient, which hasn\'t been deprecated
JobConf
JobClient
This is a nice example with downloadable code: http://sonerbalkir.blogspot.com/2010/01/new-hadoop-api-020x.html It's also over two years old and there is no official documentation discussing the new API. Sad.
