在編寫MapReduce程序時，Map和Reduce之間傳遞的數據需要是ArrayList類型的，在調試運行時遇到了這樣的一個錯誤：

java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: org.apache.hadoop.io.ArrayWritable.<init>()

經查詢官網API文檔后發現這樣的一段話：

A Writable for arrays containing instances of a class. The elements of this writable must all be instances of the same class. If this writable will be the input for a Reducer, you will need to create a subclass that sets the value to be of the proper type. For example:public class IntArrayWritable extends ArrayWritable { public IntArrayWritable() { super(IntWritable.class); } }

原來是要自己實現一個ArrayWritable類的派生類，使用時只要實現兩個構造函數即可

public static class TextArrayWritable extends ArrayWritable { public TextArrayWritable() { super(Text.class); } public TextArrayWritable(String[] strings) { super(Text.class); Text[] texts = new Text[strings.length]; for (int i = 0; i < strings.length; i++) { texts[i] = new Text(strings[i]); } set(texts); }}
