WritableName can't load class ... for custom WritableClasses

[maha]

Hi,

  The following was working fine with Hadoop Writables.
Now, I'm using my custom Writable class called "TermFreqArrayWritable" to 
produce a Sequence File with key=LongWritable and value=TermFreqArrayWritable.

 However, when I try to read the produced Sequence File using its Reader, I get 
the following:

java.lang.RuntimeException: java.io.IOException: WritableName can't load class:

By the way, my SequenceFileReader has those lines:

        LongWritable key = new LongWritable();
        TermFreqArrayWritable value = new TermFreqArrayWritable();              
        
        while(reader.next(key,value)){
                System.out.println("key: "+ key.toString());
                System.out.println("value: "+ value.toString());                
                
        }
and TermFreqArrayWritable is inside the same project under a default package.


Has any one tried their custom Writable with SequenceFiles ?

Thank you,
Maha
