> Key: HADOOP-10138
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10138
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Christopher Auston
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: streaming-patch.diff

>
> We store XML documents in sequence files as values. The values may contain
> newlines. It is useful to have hadoop-streaming output a zero-byte instead
> of a newline to delimit key-value boundaries. The mapping script can then
> find the key-value pairs unambiguously by looking for zero-bytes.
> I find this really useful so I can use a ruby script for quick adhoc queries.
> I have a patch with unit test that I will attach.
