Accessing job execution context from ItemWriter

[tiger.spring]

Hi,

I did read some post which looked similar but I think they may not have the same requirement.

I would like to get hold of job execution context from my custom item Writer Listener. So that in the onWriteError() I can add failed items list to the context and use them later in job execution listener.

Any ideas????

you can implement StepExecutionListener to store the StepExecution as a property in the ItemWriter. Be careful not to store too much inside the context. The ItemWriter will be then statefull, so not threadsafe anymore (perhaps it wasn't anyway).

Okay. This is what I already thought so and read in older posts. However, I'm not sure what happens at runtime:

Will this listener get executed on both item write event and step events?

public class CustomeItemWriteListener implements ItemWriteListener<S>,
		StepExecutionListener {

	public ExitStatus afterStep(StepExecution arg0) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		return null;
	}

	public void beforeStep(StepExecution arg0) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub

	}

	public void afterWrite(List<? extends S> arg0) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		
	}

	public void beforeWrite(List<? extends S> arg0) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		
	}

	public void onWriteError(Exception arg0, List<? extends S> arg1) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		
	}

}

yes. You can try by logging the calls.
