partitioning the inputs to the mapper

[Shirley Cohen]

How do I partition the inputs to the mapper, such that a mapper  
processes an entire file or files? What is happening now is that each  
mapper receives only portions of a file and I want them to receive an  
entire file. Is there a way to do that within the scope of the  
framework?


Thanks,
