Method Detail

getNumberOfReducers

int getNumberOfReducers()

Retrieves the number of registered Reduce instances

Returns:

The number of reducers for this map.

getReduceIdentifiers

java.util.Enumeration<java.lang.String> getReduceIdentifiers()

Retrieves the set of Reduce identifiers

Returns:

An enumeration of the list of registered identifiers

addReduce

int addReduce(Reduce reduce)
       throws MapReduceException

Adds a Reduce for this particular Map. Typically, a given Map instance will have only one Reduce. There are special instances when multiple Reducers would be needed for a given Map function.

Parameters:

reduce - The Reducer that will be added to this Map

Returns:

The number of reducers for this Map.

Throws:

MapReduceException - If there are problems in adding this Reduce

java.lang.NullPointerException - If the specified Reduce is null

removeReduce

int removeReduce(java.lang.String reduceIdentifier)
          throws MapReduceException

Removes a given reducer from the list of Reducers for a given Map function.

Parameters:

reduceIdentifier - The identifier of the Reduce to be removed

Returns:

The number of reducers for this Map, after the successful removal

Throws:

MapReduceException - If there are problems during removal.

java.lang.NullPointerException - If the specified Reduce is null
