CompositeRecordReader: key and values can be in uninitialized state if files 
being joined have no records
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-3630
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3630
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: mapred
    Affects Versions: 0.17.0
            Reporter: Jingkei Ly


I am using org.apache.hadoop.mapred.join.CompositeInputFormat to do an 
outer-join across a number of SequenceFiles. This works fine in most 
circumstances, but I get NullPointerExceptions/uninitialized data (where 
Writable#readFields() has not been called) when some of the files being joined 
have no records in them.
