Hi, I'm trying to extend the pipes interface as defined in Pipes.hh to support the read of binary input data. I believe that would mean extending the getInputValue() method of context to return char *, which would then be memcpy'd to appropriate type inside the C++ pipes program. I'm guessing the best way to do this would be to use a custom InputFormat on the java side that would have BytesWritable value. Is this the correct approach?
