Description

From Jacob Metcalf:

On another subject (maybe I need a new thread/JIRA for this) is it intentional that the configuration is not applied to the sorting and grouping comparators?
I am writing my own multiple input MR driver to test a reduce side join and had to do:
// Configure grouping and sorting comparators
if (keyGroupComparator instanceof Configured )

{ ((Configured)keyGroupComparator).setConf( configuration ); }

if (keyValueOrderComparator instanceof Configured)

{ ((Configured)keyValueOrderComparator).setConf( configuration ); }

To get the config applied even though they are Configured objects.
