[jira] [Updated] (HBASE-4039) Users should be able to choose custom TableInputFormats without modifying TableMapReduceUtil.initTableMapperJob().

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4039?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Edward Choi updated HBASE-4039:
-------------------------------

    Description: 
Currently, org.apache.hadoop.hbase.mapreduce.TableMapReduceUtil.initTableMapperJob() forces any Hbase job to use the default TableInputFormat.class as the job's input format class.
"job.setInputFormatClass(TableInputFormat.class);" ==> This line is included in initTableMapperJob().
This restriction causes users to modify initTableMapperJob() in addition to implementing their own TableInputFormat. 
It would be nicer if users can use custom TableInputFormats without additionally tampering with HBase source code.
