Mariappan Asokan commented on MAPREDUCE-4482: --------------------------------------------- At this point, it appears to be a difficult task to back-port MAPREDUCE-318 as there were more changes incorporated on top of MAPREDUCE-318. So I am opting to refactor {{ReduceCopier}} in {{ReduceTask.java}}. The shuffle and merge are coupled in this class right now. I will break it into two classes namely {{ReduceCopier}} which just does the shuffle(will implement {{ShuffleRunner}} discussed in MAPREDUCE-2454) and {{ReduceMerger}} which does the merge. {{ReduceMerger}} will implement {{ShuffleCallback}} interface. The {{ShuffleCallback}} interface for 1.x will be slightly different from the one submitted for MAPREDUCE-2454 in order to accommodate subtle differences between 1.x and 2.x in their shuffle code. I welcome suggestions from other developers. Thanks. -- Asokan > Backport MR sort plugin(MAPREDUCE-2454) to Hadoop 1.2 > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-4482 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-4482 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: mrv1 > Affects Versions: 1.2.0 > Reporter: Mariappan Asokan > -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
