Hi,
I implemented a customized input format in Java for a Map Reduce job.
The mapper and reducer classes are implemented in C++, using the Hadoop
Pipes API.
The package documentation for org.apache.hadoop.mapred.pipes states that
"The job may consist of any combination of Java and C++ RecordReaders,
Mappers, Paritioner, Combiner, Reducer, and RecordWriter"
I packaged the input format class in a jar file and ran the job
invocation command:
hadoop pipes -jar mytest.jar -inputformat mytest.PriceInputFormat -conf
conf/mytest.xml -input mgr/in -output mgr/out -program mgr/bin/TestMgr
It keeps failing with error ClassNotFoundException
Although I've specified the jar file name with the -jar parameter, the
input format class still cannot be located. Is there any other means to
specify the input format class, or the job jar file, for a Pipes job ?
Stack trace:
