Aaron Kimball updated MAPREDUCE-1126: ------------------------------------- Status: Patch Available (was: Open) Marking patch-available now that dependencies have been checked in. > shuffle should use serialization to get comparator > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-1126 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1126 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: task > Reporter: Doug Cutting > Assignee: Aaron Kimball > Attachments: MAPREDUCE-1126.2.patch, MAPREDUCE-1126.3.patch, > MAPREDUCE-1126.4.patch, MAPREDUCE-1126.patch > > > Currently the key comparator is defined as a Java class. Instead we should > use the Serialization API to create key comparators. This would permit, > e.g., Avro-based comparators to be used, permitting efficient sorting of > complex data types without having to write a RawComparator in Java. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
