streaming question.

[Dmitry Pushkarev <um...@stanford.edu>]

Dear hadoop users.

 

When I use streaming on one large file, that is being split in many map
tasks, can I be sure that splits won't fall in the middle of the line? 

(i.e. if split size needs to be larger than  64Mb to fit end of the line it
will be increased?

 

Thanks.

You can also have a look at NLineInputFormat. 
@http://hadoop.apache.org/core/docs/r0.19.0/api/org/apache/hadoop/mapred/lib/NLineInputFormat.html

Dmitry,

If you are talking about Text data, then the splits can be anywhere.  But
LineRecordReader will take care of this thing and your mapper code will
get the correct whole line.
