Hi,
I am currently working on project wherein I am inserting thousands of records in database using spring batch. So is there any way where I can handle exceptions in my ItemReader and ItemWriter?
I need to apply logic for failure of records when job executes i.e if I am inserting some 100 records at the end of the day by reading xml file and if 50 of them fail due to some reason, I want to skip these failed records and continue processing remaining records.

I will be glad if you help me accordingly.
Thanks in advance :)

Show your code. Regular try/catch clause should do the job

I hav not referred any user defined java class as such for inserting records. But called my logic inside my context.xml file using spring batch as below:

<bean  id="ItemReader" class="org.springframework.batch.item.xml.StaxEventItemReader" scope="step">
		<property name="fragmentRootElementName" value="rootname" />
		 <property name="resource" value="file:#{jobExecutionContext['input.file.name']}" />
		<property name="unmarshaller" ref="EMarshaller" />
	</bean>
	 

	

	<bean id="EMarshaller" class="org.springframework.oxm.xstream.XStreamMarshaller">
		<property name="aliases">
			<util:map id="aliases">
				<entry key="" value="com.myclass" />
			</util:map>
		</property>
	</bean> 
	

	<bean id="ItemWriter"
		class="org.springframework.batch.item.database.JdbcBatchItemWriter">
		<property name="assertUpdates" value="false" />
		<property name="itemSqlParameterSourceProvider">
			<bean name="sqlParameterSourceProvider" id="sqlParameterSourceProvider"
				class="org.springframework.batch.item.database.BeanPropertyItemSqlParameterSourceProvider" />
		</property>
		<property name="sql"
			value="INSERT STATEMENT" />
		<property name="dataSource" ref="test-dataSource" />
	</bean>


	<batch:job id="InsertRecords" >
	
		<batch:step id="step0" next="step1"  >
			
		</batch:step>
		
		
		<batch:step id="step1">
			<batch:tasklet   >
				<batch:chunk reader="ItemReader" writer="ItemWriter" commit-interval="2"
					 /> 
			</batch:tasklet>
		</batch:step>
	</batch:job>

Sorry for the late post.

Hi,

you can use <batch:skippable-exception-classes> tag for this perpose. It will skip exception mentioned in this tag. Please search for above tag to get more details about this

thanks and regards,
