Hi,
I have some XML files with a structure like this:

<document>

   <header>some text</header>

   <record>record 1</record>
   <record>record 2</record>
   ....
   <record>record N</record>

<document>

Where the info in the header is necessary for processing the records. By
using Mahou's  XmlInputFormat I'm able to rescue every <record> but not the
info in the header, an option is not to split the file and process it as a
whole in the mapper, but sometimes the files are over 200MB and I belive it
would not be very efficient.
So if any has some suggestion about how to process this kind of file, I
would appreciate it!

thanks
