I have a MapReduce process that uses the same class for its combiner and reducer. I just realized that I want the behavior in the combiner and reducer to be slightly different in this one place. I could write separate combiner and reducer classes derived from a common source, but in my situation this is overkill. Is there some way I can tell at runtime whether I'm running as a combiner or a reducer? Like some configuration setting?
