Hi .
I am a beginner to the Hadoop Map/Reduce Framework.
Is there a way I can access the static variables declared in my class in the 
map function  ? 

It goes like :

public class test extends Configured implements Tool { 
  static String storyVersion = null;
  static String storySize = null;
  static String storyTimestamp = null;
  
  public static class MapClass extends MapReduceBase
    implements Mapper<LongWritable, Text, Text, Text> { // LongWritable 
        
      private Text keytext = new Text();

      @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
        public void map(LongWritable key, Text value, 
                        OutputCollector<Text, Text> output, 
                        Reporter reporter) throws IOException {

        // Access the static variables here 

        }
  
     :
     :
     :
  }
