Bug in AsyncItemProcessor. Can not use scope step. Scope 'step' is not active except.

[koganovt]

Hi,
I am trying to use "org.springframework.batch.integration.async.Async ItemProcessor" to make Processor multithreading. I am passing as a "delegate" my own service/bean.
If I declare that bean in scope "step". I get the following exception (below):
I am attaching job description xml and the my service/bean that acts as a "delegate"

Thanks,
Tanya.

Not sure I would call that a bug (missing feature maybe), but you are right that we could take care of it in the framework. You could raise a JIRA issue.

Dave,
I can not find source code changes for the BATCHADM-81 JIRA. could you, please, send the URL for the source code?

Thank you,
Tanya.
