You can use this,
public class WordCount {

    public static class Map extends MapReduceBase implements
            Mapper<LongWritable, Text, Text, IntWritable> {

        public void configure(JobConf job) {
             // put your initialization here
        }

        private final static IntWritable one = new IntWritable(1);
        private Text word = new Text();
        private String filename;
        private boolean fopen=false;
        private FSDataOutputStream dos;
        public Map(String fname) {
        .......
        .......
        }
...............
...............
...............
[/code]
