Hi,
You can set not only String but also Object. :-)
/**
* Set the Vertex class for the job.
*/
public void setVertexClass(
Class<? extends Vertex<? extends Writable, ? extends Writable, ?
extends Writable>> cls)
throws IllegalStateException {
conf.setClass(VERTEX_CLASS_ATTR, cls, Vertex.class);
setInputKeyClass(cls);
setInputValueClass(NullWritable.class);
}

If f and g functions should be provided as a user-defined function,
Above code will be helpful. And also, you can create your own
framework atop Hama like BSP-based vertex-centric graph computing
framework.
Thanks!
