Need to document the controls for sorting and grouping into the reduce ----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-1981 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1981 Project: Hadoop Issue Type: Task Components: mapred Reporter: Owen O'Malley Assignee: Owen O'Malley Fix For: 0.15.0 The JavaDoc for the Reducer should document how to control the sort order of keys and values via the JobConf methods: {code} setOutputKeyComparatorClass setOutputValueGroupingComparator {code} Both methods desperately need better names. (I'd vote for setKeySortingComparator and setKeyGroupingComparator.) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
