---------------------------------------------
Sorry, in the last sentence I meant the code can be removed from
{{ReduceTask.java}}.

> Key: MAPREDUCE-5221
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5221
> Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.0.4-alpha
> Reporter: Siddharth Seth

>
> If a combiner is specified using o.a.h.mapreduce.Job.setCombinerClass - this
> will silently ignored on the reduce side since the reduce side usage is only
> aware of the old api combiner.
> This doesn't fail the job - since the new combiner key does not deprecate the
> old key.
