That is exactly the project for which I though some of the new I/O interfaces would reduce the amount of code, (plus auto-freed resources on exceptions, with try-with blocks). But my goal is to make it work in current hadoop deployments, rather than having a special deploy with jdk7. So, I need to worry about the current install-base of hadoop. - milind --- Milind Bhandarkar Greenplum Labs, EMC (Disclaimer: Opinions expressed in this email are those of the author, and do not necessarily represent the views of any organization, past or present, the author might be affiliated with.)
