Hi Folks,

Just doing a sanity check here.

I have a map-only job, which produces a filename for a key and data as
a value.  I want to write the value (data) into the key (filename) in
the path specified when I run the job.

The value (data) doesn't need any formatting, I can just write it to
HDFS without modification.

So, looking at this link (the Output Formats section):

http://developer.yahoo.com/hadoop/tutorial/module5.html

Looks like I want to:
- create a new output format
- override write, tell it not to call writekey as I don't want that written
- new getRecordWriter method that use the key as the filename and
calls my outputformat

Sound reasonable?

Thanks,

Tom
