--------------------------------------

             Summary: Provide Merge API for MapFile to merge multiple similar 
MapFiles to one MapFile
                 Key: HADOOP-11569
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11569
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Vinayakumar B
            Assignee: Vinayakumar B


If there are multiple similar MapFiles of the same keyClass and value classes, 
then these can be merged together to One MapFile to allow search easier.

Provide an API  similar to {{SequenceFile#merge()}}.
Merging will be easy with the fact that MapFiles are already sorted.
