Got it!
i will try thanks! :)

What about writing a section of it in the programming guide?
I found a couple of topic about the readers in the mailing list, it seems it 
may be helpful

Sure, just override the "createInputSplits()" method. Call for each of your 
file paths "super.createInputSplits()" and then combine the results into one 
array that you return.

That should do it...

Hi Stephan, thanks for answering,
right now I am using an extension of the DelimitedInputFormat, is there a way 
to merge it with the option 2?

There are two ways you can realize that:

1) Create multiple sources and union them. This is easy, but probably a bit 
less efficient.

2) Override the FileInputFormat's createInputSplits method to take a union of 
the paths to create a list of all files and fils splits that will be read.

Hi everybody,
is there a way to specify a list of URI (“hdfs://file1”,”hdfs://file2”,…) and 
open them as different files?
I know i may open the entire directory, but i want to be able to select a 
subset of files in the directory

thanks
