Class TaskID

All Implemented Interfaces:
Comparable<ID>, Writable, WritableComparable<ID>

@Public @Stable public class TaskID extends TaskID
TaskID represents the immutable and unique identifier for a Map or Reduce Task. Each TaskID encompasses multiple attempts made to execute the Map or Reduce Task, each of which are uniquely indentified by their TaskAttemptID. TaskID consists of 3 parts. First part is the JobID, that this TaskInProgress belongs to. Second part of the TaskID is either 'm' or 'r' representing whether the task is a map task or a reduce task. And the third part is the task number.
An example TaskID is : task_200707121733_0003_m_000005 , which represents the fifth map task in the third job running at the jobtracker started at 200707121733.

Applications should never construct or parse TaskID strings , but rather use appropriate constructors or forName(String) method.

    • getTaskIDsPattern

      @Deprecated public static String getTaskIDsPattern(String jtIdentifier, Integer jobId, Boolean isMap, Integer taskId)
      Returns a regex pattern which matches task IDs. Arguments can be given null, in which case that part of the regex will be generic. For example to obtain a regex matching the first map task of any jobtracker, of any job, we would use :
       
       TaskID.getTaskIDsPattern(null, null, true, 1);
       
      which will return :
       "task_[^_]*_[0-9]*_m_000001*" 
      Parameters:
      jtIdentifier - jobTracker identifier, or null
      jobId - job number, or null
      isMap - whether the tip is a map, or null
      taskId - taskId number, or null
      Returns:
      a regex pattern matching TaskIDs

      Parameters:
      jtIdentifier - jobTracker identifier, or null
      jobId - job number, or null
