Spring Batch: not able to access jobexecutionConext in flatfileitemwriter

Question

hey i am trying to use the jobexecutioncontxt in my flatfileitemwriter and it shows me errors...

My xml is:-

<batch:job id="subrogationJob" incrementer="incrementer">

    </batch:step>
    <batch:step id="readFromDataBase" next="hasMoreFilesStep">

and in xml when i m trying to use this in xml in my writer is shows me error..... but it works fine filetransferTasklet.

error is :-

            delegate.write(subrogation);

        }*/

    }

pls help....

Answer 1

You have two exceptions here. The first one is due to the fact that the type for com.hcsc.ccsp.nonadj.subrogation.writer.SubrogationHeaderFooterWriter.delegate does not match the FlatFileItemWriter. What type is that defined as (if you can update your post with the code for this class, it would be helpful)?

The second one is because you are attempting to use a decider that is step scoped. In a regular Spring Batch job (not a JSR-352 based job), a decider is not a step. Because of that, it doesn't get a StepExecution, and therefore step scope is not supported.

Update

Change your setter for the delegate to take ItemWriter (the interface) instead of FlatFileItemWriter (the implementation) to address the first issue.
