For example:
I put all user global variables in a class I called MyGlobals
public class MyGlobals {
static public int var1;
...
}
Then, in whatever map function I have, I can refer to my globals like this:
public void map(LongWritable key, Text value, OutputCollector output,
Reporter reporter) throws IOException {
....
int i = MyGlobals.var1;
...
}
Sorry about the stupid question and answer.
