Class SequenceFileInputFilter.MD5Filter

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.hadoop.mapred.SequenceFileInputFilter.FilterBase
          org.apache.hadoop.mapred.SequenceFileInputFilter.MD5Filter

All Implemented Interfaces:
  Configurable, SequenceFileInputFilter.Filter

Enclosing class:
  SequenceFileInputFilter<K,V>

    public static class SequenceFileInputFilter.MD5Filter

extends SequenceFileInputFilter.FilterBase

This class returns a set of records by examing the MD5 digest of its key against a filtering frequency f. The filtering criteria is MD5(key) % f == 0.

Field Summary
`static int` `MD5_LEN`

Constructor Summary
`SequenceFileInputFilter.MD5Filter()`

Method Summary
`boolean` `accept(Object key)` Filtering method If MD5(key) % frequency==0, return true; otherwise return false
`void` `setConf(Configuration conf)` configure the filter according to configuration
`static void` `setFrequency(Configuration conf, int frequency)` set the filtering frequency in configuration

### accept

    public boolean accept(Object key)

  Filtering method If MD5(key) % frequency==0, return true; otherwise return false

  Parameters:
    `key` - record key
  Returns:
    true if a record is accepted; return false otherwise
