Changes in version 1.0.1 (2008-04-25)
Bug fixes (changes made, loosely ordered by importance)
- StepExecutionListener#afterStep(..) is called only after successful processing, onErrorInStep(..) handles failures
- Throwing exception in StepExecutionListener#afterStep(..) causes step to fail
- StatefulRetryStepFactoryBean honors skip configuration (ignored it before)
- More robust skip and retry logic with informative failures
- JdbcCursorItemReader handles resets (rollbacks) correctly
- JdbcCursorItemReader handles multiple restarts correctly
- Long values mapped to JDBC Types.BIGINT instead of Types.INTEGER to avoid value truncating
- StepExecutionResourceProxy now works correctly with FlatFileItemWriter
- JobRepositoryBean applies table prefix consistently (including sequences)
- HibernateCursorItemReader closes stateful session correctly
- RetryTemplate rethrows Throwables that are neither Exception nor Error instead of ignoring
- StepExecution#itemCount value was off by one
- TaskletAdapter returns ExitStatus.FINISHED by default instead of ExitStatus.CONTINUABLE
- JdbcCursorItemReader works with Derby under condition verifyCurorPosition=false
- MySQL schema uses DATETIME instead of problematic TIMESTAMP
Improvements
- Cleaned up javadocs and documentation
- StepExecutionResourceProxy#toString delegates to the proxied Resource (once it is set)
- More informative exception messages in SpringValidator (the invalid item is included)
- ExecutionContext and JobParameters support default values
- Oracle schema uses more appropriate datatypes
- Subclasses of SimpleStepFactoryBean have access to ItemOrientedStep#chunkOperations property
- Reusable tests for item readers, repository daos and step implementations (if you need to implement any of these)
