[MAPREDUCE] The new MapReduce API should make available task's progress to the task
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Key: MAPREDUCE-2492
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-2492
Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: task
Affects Versions: 0.23.0
Reporter: Amar Kamat


There is now way to get the task's current progress in the new MapReduce API. It would be nice to make it available so that the task (map/reduce) can use it. Older MapRed API's exposed a getProgress() API.
