Tom White commented on MAPREDUCE-1743: -------------------------------------- > One solution is to let TaggedInputSplit extend FileSplit. Except that MultipleInputs works with any InputFormat, not just FileInputFormat. Another way of doing this would be to invert the logic so that the InputSplit updates properties on Configuration (this would need a new method on InputSplit). > conf.get("map.input.file") returns null when using MultipleInputs in Hadoop > 0.20 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-1743 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1743 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.20.2 > Reporter: Yuanyuan Tian > > There is a problem in getting the input file name in the mapper when uisng > MultipleInputs in Hadoop 0.20.
