Hi,
I'm trying to use Hadoop map-side join in my application and wondering if
anybody knows if there's a way to use it with the new Hadoop API
("org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.*") instead of the old Hadoop API
("org.apache.hadoop.mapred.*"). The input format I'm trying to use for the join
is "CompositeInputFormat", which is in the old API package and looks like it
expects everything (job configuration, input split, etc) to be from the old API
too. This is a problem for me because I'm using the new API to create my
map/reduce jobs so I can't just use "CompositeInputFormat" as my job's input
format. I wonder if the only way to get the map-side join work is to use the
old API to create map/reduce jobs. I appreciate any response regarding this
issue.
Thanks,
