Hi all,
I am working on writing a FixedLengthInputFormat class and a
corresponding FixedLengthRecordReader.
Would the Hadoop commons project have interest in these? Basically
these are for reading inputs of textual record data, where each record
is a fixed length, (no carriage returns or separators etc)
thanks

You'll need to write your own, I'm afraid. You should subclass
FileInputFormat and go from there. You may want to look at
TextInputFormat /
LineRecordReader for an example of how an IF/RR gets put together,
but there
isn't an existing fixed-len record reader.

Hi,
I have input files, that contain NO carriage returns/line feeds. Each
record is a fixed length (i.e. 202 bytes).
Which FileInputFormat should I be using? so that each call to my
Mapper
receives one K,V pair, where the KEY is null or something (I don't
care) and
the VALUE is the 202 byte record?
thanks!
