Bo Adler updated HADOOP-3562:
-----------------------------

    Attachment: 0002-support-for-gzip-d-xml-records.patch

Here is a patch which adds gzip support.

It was slightly awkward to do in a very clean way.  In particular, I had to 
change the access modifier of a variable from a super-class; arguably, I could 
have just created a duplicate variable within the StreamInputFormat class, but 
I expect that other subclasses will have similar issues so I opted for changing 
the parent class.

The other ugly change I had to make was move pos_ into StreamBaseRecordReader, 
but still require inheritors to update the variable.

> I am using Hadoop Streaming to analyze Wikipedia data files, which are in XML 
> format and are compressed because they are so large.  While doing some 
> preliminary tests, I discovered that you cannot use StreamXMLRecordReader 
> with gzipped data files -- the data is fed into the mapper script as raw data.
