Can we find a task-attemp status internally while processing the job?

[Yair Even-Zohar <ya...@audiencescience.com>]

I have the following class  definition:

 

 

public class Ase2DbMapRed extends MapReduceBase implements
TableMap<Text, Text>, Tool {

 

I am also implementing the close() method extended  from  MapReduceBase

 

Is it possible to know (and how?) within the "public class close()..."
method whether this particular task-attempt was successful?

 

 

Thanks
