In this case a separate map is created for each file which > could be very inefficient. > It would be greate to have an umbrella input format that can take multiple > files and use them in a single split. We would like to see this working with > different data formats if possible. > There are already a couple of input formats doing similar thing: > MultifileInputFormat as well as CombinedInputFormat; howevere, neither works > with ne Hadoop 20 API. > We at least want to do a feasibility study for Pig 0.8.0. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
