Dick King commented on HADOOP-120:
----------------------------------
I realized that, of course, but I'm not expecting a whole lot of small
ArrayWritable's .
Owen O'Malley's solution has the problem that ArrayWritables can themselves
contain ArrayWritables. We might, for example, want to have a two-component
ArrayWritable where there are some integers and some UTF8s, so we need a class
public class ArrayOfArrayOfSomeIntsAndSomeUTF8s extends ArrayWritable
{
... filling this in gives me a headache
}
