Hi Mohit, that would be a good issue to start with. Unfortunately, I assigned the issue to myself an started working on it. However, I am not done yet. If you like, you can pick up the issue and either continue with what I did so far [1] or start all over. Just let me know...
Another option would be to extend the Hadoop Compatibility Layer. Right now, we have wrappers for Hadoop's mapred-API function (Mapper, Reducer), but not for the mapreduce-API functions [2]. Having wrappers for mapreduce-API functions would also be cool. There is no JIRA for this issue yet. And then there are of course plenty of other issues ;-) Cheers, Fabian [1] https://github.com/fhueske/incubator-flink/tree/multiCharDelim [2] http://flink.incubator.apache.org/docs/0.7-incubating/hadoop_compatibility.html 2014-10-21 23:56 GMT+02:00 Mohit Singh <[email protected]>: > Maybe I can start here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1168 > ?? > > On Tue, Oct 21, 2014 at 2:26 AM, Ufuk Celebi <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Hey Mohit, >> >> On 21 Oct 2014, at 02:11, Mohit Singh <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> > Cool...
