Hi,

I need to be able to retrieve the current job id from within map or reduce tasks. I looked here and there, but I wasn't able to find any way to do this in the API ...

Basically, I want to be able to do something like this:

class XXX implements Mapper {

   public void configure(Configuration conf) {

      String jobId = ... ?
      String taskId = ... ?
   }
}

And similarly:


class XXX implements Reducer {

   public void configure(Configuration conf) {

      String jobId = ... ?
      String taskId = ... ?
   }
}

Is this possible?
