Runping Qi commented on HADOOP-2433:
------------------------------------

There is already a proper input format class: KeyValueTextInputFormat for 
generating 
the first field as the key and the rest as the value.

>             Project: Hadoop
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: contrib/streaming
>            Reporter: arkady borkovsky
>
> When streaming command specifies 
> -mapper org.apache.hadoop.mapred.lib.IdentityMapper
> the reducer should receive exactly the same text lines as where present in 
> the input.
> The only modification is the reordering the input.
> Currently, org.apache.hadoop.mapred.lib.IdentityMapper inserts ofsets in the 
> input as keys.  Which renders it useless.
> Moreover, in the latest release org.apache.hadoop.mapred.lib.IdentityMapper 
> just crashes:
> >java.io.IOException: Type mismatch in key from map: e
> xpected org.apache.hadoop.io.Text, recieved org.apache.hadoop.io.LongWritable
>         at 
> org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapTask$MapOutputBuffer.collect(MapTask.java:331)
>         at 
> org.apache.hadoop.mapred.lib.IdentityMapper.map(IdentityMapper.java:40)
>         at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapRunner.run(MapRunner.java:50)
>         at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapTask.run(MapTask.java:192)
>         at 
> org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TaskTracker$Child.main(TaskTracker.java:1760)
> (I open only one bug, as it is broken anyway, the new behavior does not 
> actually make it any worse than before)
