Hello, I am using HadoopStreaming using a BinaryInputStream. What this basically does is send a stream of bytes ( the java type is : private byte[] bytes) to my python program.
I have done a test like this, while 1: x=sys.stdin.read(100) if x: print x else: break Now, the incoming data is binary(though mine is actually merely ascii text) but the output is not what is expected. I expect for e.g all/86000/114.310.151.209.60370-121.110.5.176.113\n62485.9718 118.010.241.12 60370 128.210.5.176 However i get a 1 before all and a 4 just after \n and before the 6. My question is : how do i read binary data(Java's byte stream) from stdin? Or is this actually what i'm getting? Thanks Sapsi -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
