RE: Sending the entire file content as value to the mapper

Hi,

  You could send the file meta info to the map function as key/value through 
the split, and then you can read the entire file in your map function.

Thanks

Subject: Sending the entire file content as value to the mapper

Hi Team,

I have a file which has semi structured text  data with no definite start and 
end points.
How can i send the entire content of the file at once as key or value to the 
mapper instead of line by line.

Thanks,
Subbu
