Class StepSynchronizationManager

java.lang.Object
  org.springframework.batch.core.scope.context.StepSynchronizationManager

public class StepSynchronizationManager
extends Object

Central convenience class for framework use in managing the step scope context. Generally only to be used by implementations of Step. N.B. it is the responsibility of every Step implementation to ensure that a StepContext is available on every thread that might be involved in a step execution, including worker threads from a pool.

StepSynchronizationManager()

Method Summary

static void	close() Method for de-registering the current context - should always and only be used by in conjunction with a matching register(StepExecution) to ensure that getContext() always returns the correct value.
static StepContext	getContext() Getter for the current context if there is one, otherwise returns null.
static StepContext	register(StepExecution stepExecution) Register a context with the current thread - always put a matching close() call in a finally block to ensure that the correct context is available in the enclosing block.
static void	release() A convenient "deep" close operation.

public StepSynchronizationManager()

Method Detail

getContext

public static StepContext getContext()

Getter for the current context if there is one, otherwise returns null.

Returns:

the current StepContext or null if there is none (if one has not been registered for this thread).

register

public static StepContext register(StepExecution stepExecution)

Register a context with the current thread - always put a matching close() call in a finally block to ensure that the correct context is available in the enclosing block.

Parameters:

stepExecution - the step context to register

Returns:

a new StepContext or the current one if it has the same StepExecution

close

public static void close()

Method for de-registering the current context - should always and only be used by in conjunction with a matching register(StepExecution) to ensure that getContext() always returns the correct value. Does not call StepContext.close() - that is left up to the caller because he has a reference to the context (having registered it) and only he has knowledge of when the step actually ended.

release

public static void release()

A convenient "deep" close operation. Call this instead of close() if the step execution for the current context is ending. Delegates to StepContext.close() and then ensures that close() is also called in a finally block.
