Martin Kleppmann commented on AVRO-1306: ---------------------------------------- I agree with Mina. I don't think it's possible for reducer and combiner to be the same class in this case, because the reducer's output is non-Avro. [~cutting] any further thoughts? > Clarify documentation for hadoop input-avro output-non-avro instructions > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: AVRO-1306 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1306 > Project: Avro > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: java > Affects Versions: 1.7.5 > Reporter: Mina Naguib > Priority: Minor > Labels: documentation, patch > Attachments: input_avro_output_nonavro_doc_update.diff > > > The documentation for hadoop usage (input avro, output non-avro) is > misleading, as the Reducer is likely not usable as a combiner.
