Error in spring hadoop args in understanding jobParameters expression

[timodavid]

Hi, when I am doing following.

<hdp:tool-tasklet id="wc-tasklet" scope="step" tool-class="com.abcd.WordCountToolRunner" >
<hdp:arg value="#{jobParameters['inputFile']}"/>
<hdp:arg value="#{jobParameters['outputFile']}"/>
</hdp:tool-tasklet>

When I try to set arguments of tool by retrieving this from jobParameters using spring expression, I don't get arguments parsed well and I always see null. Any ideas on how to configure jobParameters to tool tasklet.

Most likely that happens because they're not set and thus their default value is null. Take a look at the Spring Batch docs [1] and try the samples provided with the distro.
