[jira] Created: (MAPREDUCE-1762) Add a setValue() method in Counter

Add a setValue() method in Counter
----------------------------------

                 Key: MAPREDUCE-1762
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1762
             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 0.22.0
            Reporter: Scott Chen
            Assignee: Scott Chen
             Fix For: 0.22.0


Counters are very useful because of the logging and transmitting are already there.
It is very convenient to transmit and store numbers. But currently Counter only has an increment() method.
It will be nice if there can be a setValue() method in this class that will allow us to transmit wider variety of information through it.

What do you think?
