Hi all,

I m trying to Write a program that performs some simple Datamining on a
certain DataSet. I was told that an Identity Reducer should be written.

public class Reduce extends MapReduceBase implements Reducer {

public void reduce(Text key, Iterator<IntWritable>
values,OutputCollector<Text, IntWritable> output,
  Reporter reporter) throws IOException {

===>
It shows me the following exception  ..

"The type Reducer cannot be a superinterface of Reduce; a superinterface
must be an interface "
Can I have some pointers on solving this?

I guess you are using org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.Mapper which is a class
for hadoop new API. you can use the org.apache.hadoop.mapred.Mapper which is
for old API

@ Jeff
I seem to have used the Mapper you are pointing to ...
import org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapReduceBase;
import org.apache.hadoop.mapred.Mapper;

Will that affect the Reducer in any sense?

Can you post the entire exception with its accompanying stack trace?
