Mass Dosage commented on MAPREDUCE-2226:
----------------------------------------

Hey guys, this issue has bitten us too. We're currently getting around it by 
using reflection which is far from ideal given that we're having to do it in a 
mapper for each item being mapped. I agree with [~tomwhite]'s suggestion to 
rename the class. Is all that is missing is taking the original patch and 
renaming the class? If [~esammer] isn't going to do it I could have a go.

> Currently it's not possible to get at the original InputSplits when using 
> MultipleInputs. This is because TaggedInputSplit (used by 
> DelegatingInputFormat used by MultipleInputs) is not public. This means 
> things like the following do not work:
> {code}
> public void map(...) {
>   FileSplit fis = (FileSplit)((TaggedInputSplit) 
> reporter.getInputSplit()).getInputSplit();
>   Path p = fis.getPath();
> }
> {code}
> This prevents users from getting at input split specific data.
