>             Project: Hadoop
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: conf
>    Affects Versions: 0.12.2
>            Reporter: Owen O'Malley
>         Assigned To: Owen O'Malley
>            Priority: Minor
>             Fix For: 0.14.0

> I think that the confusing methods in Configuration:
>   set(String, Object)
>   getObject(String)
>   get(String, Object)
> should be deprecated. Users expect them to work and in a distributed environment, there is almost no way to make them work correctly. If some user really needs the functionality, we should implement it right and require that the objects be Writable and serialize them into the Configuration.
> Thoughts?
