HDFS.BlockReader cannot seek?steven zhuang 2010-09-20, 02:27
hi, all,
I am wondering why seek(long) is disabled in HDFS.BlockReader? Can I use skip(long) to replace this seek(long)? I have some small files, each is less than a block in size. In my program, given the file/block information, I will try to start a process on each datanode and try to read from the HDFS directly through a socket connection to the datanode. The read requires seek OP on the file, cause the file I used is TFile, which requires the underlayer class to be seekable. |
