Needs a simple answer

Hi all,

   Why the following lines would work in the main class (WordCount) and not in 
Mapper ? even though " myconf " is set in WordCount to point to the getConf() 
returned object.

             try{ 
                    FileSystem hdfs = FileSystem.get(wc.WordCount.myconf);
                    hdfs.copyFromLocalFile(new Path("/Users/file"), new 
Path("/tmp/file"));
                   }catch(Exception e) { System.err.print("\nError");}

  
  Also, the print statement will never print on console unless it's in my run 
function..

      Appreciate it :)
