java.util.Date cannot be cast to org.apache.hadoop.io.Writable

[yujianok]

Im integrating Elasticsearch-Hadoop with Spark
Spark version is 1.1.1
hadoop-client version is 1.0.4
elastisearch-hadoop version is 2.0.2

When I count a resource with a Date field(stored as long value),exception occered

Code as below:
JavaPairRDD esRDD = jsc.hadoopRDD(conf, EsInputFormat.class, Text.class, MapWritable.class);
long docCount = esRDD.count();

error message as below:

In my opinion, maybe JdkValueReader:340 has a bug. It should not simply return a new java.util.Date()

This should be fixed in master - can you please check the dev build for 2.1.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT. Duplicate of #320
