Hi Rana, all you need to do is writing your own EdgeValue and VertexValue class by implementing the Writable Interface. You can use any field you like. Just make sure you write or read them in the Writeable methods.
Here’s VertexValue I use (There may be better ways for writing list, but it works just fine) http://pastebin.com/VpMVFuuc In your compute method get the VertexValue with vertex.getValue() and apply your changes. That’s it. Whatever you write into it in step one, you will be able to read or modify in step two.

I need the edge has [flow, capacity, distinction, source] You says I need to create a new class type for edge, How can I pass it to json class and how can I make json class read my new edge object. I need to submit my code next week, so any answer or recommendation will definitely help. thanks Rana On Mar 24, 2014, at 7:29 AM, Pankaj Malhotra <pankajiit...@gmail.com<mailto:pankajiit...@gmail.com>> wrote: If I get your point-1 right, you want to have a vertex class type other than the ones available, for example: Text. If this is what you want, you can have a class having as many fields as you want. Then convert the objects of that class to Json objects using Gson for example. Then, you can use the Json string to set the fields of the Text class.
