Vertex data not persisted through supersteps

Hi everybody,

I encounter a strange behaviour in my Apache Giraph implementations.

In my computation I want to update a counter in my vertex data object. But in the end or even in the next superstep the counter is always zero. Do I forget something simple? Do I have to manually update the vertex value object?

Simple Example: 

>> In compute:
...
MyVertextData vertexValue = vertex.getValue();
vertextvalue.increaseCounter();
…

<<

>> MyVertextData.class
…
private Integer counter = 0;

 @Override
public void write(DataOutput out) throws IOException {
    out.writeInt(this.counter);
}

@Override
public void readFields(DataInput in) throws IOException {
    this.counter = in.readInt()
}

public void increaseCounter() {
    this.counter = this.counter + 1;
}
<<

Thank you in advance!

Greetings!

You could try setting the incremented value for the vertex in the current
superstep to get the correct value in the next one. May be that could help.
