Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-1968: -------------------------------------- > Is this a blocker for 0.15 release? I don't think so. We don't usually do new feature blockers, rather only regression bugs. > Wildcard input syntax (glob) should support {} > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-1968 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1968 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.14.1 > Reporter: eric baldeschwieler > Fix For: 0.15.0 > > > We have users who have organized data by day and would like to select several > days in a single input specification. For example they would like to be able > to say: > '/data/2007{0830,0831,0901}/typeX/' > To input 3 days data into map-reduce (or Pig in this case). > (Also the use of regexp to resolve glob paterns looks like it might introduce > some other bugs. I'd appreciate it if someone took another look at the code > to see if there are any file characters that could > be interpreted as regexp "instructions"). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
