Method Summary
`void` `close()` Close this `InputSplit` to future operations.
`Text` `createKey()` Create an object of the appropriate type to be used as a key.
`Text` `createValue()` Create an object of the appropriate type to be used as a value.
`long` `getPos()` Returns the current position in the input.
`float` `getProgress()` How much of the input has the `RecordReader` consumed i.e.
