Passing JobParameters to SimpleStepFactoryBean with Late Binding

[kunlenzo247]

Is there a way I can parameterize commitInterval in SimpleStepFactoryBean bean definition ?

I tried the configuration below with no luck -


<bean id="baseProcessingStep" scope="step"
class="org.springframework.batch.core.step.item.Si mpleStepFactoryBean"
abstract="true">
<property name="transactionManager" ref="transactionManager" />
<property name="jobRepository" ref="jobRepository" />
<property name="startLimit" value="100" />
<property name="commitInterval" value="#{jobParameters[commitInterval]}" />
</bean>

I keep getting -

Invalid property 'targetBeanName' of bean class [org.springframework.batch.core.configuration.xml.S tepParserStepFactoryBean]: Bean property 'targetBeanName' is not writable or has an invalid setter method. Does the parameter type of the setter match the return type of the getter?

Thanks.

You can't use scope="step" on a Step, unless it is wrapped in another Step (the scope instance has to be created by a Step). Another way to set the commit interval like that is to use StepExecutionSimpleCompletionPolicy.
