Unable to import JdbcBatchItemWriterBuilder in spring boot 1.5.7 version - spring

Question

I am trying to write below code in the spring boot 1.5.7 version.
#Bean
public JdbcBatchItemWriter<WriterSO> writer(DataSource dataSource, ItemPreparedStatementSetter<WriterSO> setter) {
return new JdbcBatchItemWriterBuilder<WriterSO>()
.itemSqlParameterSourceProvider(new BeanPropertyItemSqlParameterSourceProvider<>())
.itemPreparedStatementSetter(setter)
.sql("insert into writer (id, fullName, randomNum) values (?,?,?)").dataSource(dataSource).build();
}
but unable to use or import the package belongs to JdbcBatchItemWriterBuilder. does this package is not available in springboot 1.5.7?
Below is my pom.xml which is using in the project :

Any suggestions to write alternate code whcich works in springboot 1.5.7

Answer 1

According to JdbcBatchItemWriterBuilder javadoc, it was added in version 4, and Spring Boot 1.5.7 uses version 3 of Spring Batch, therefore it is not available to you.
You can use the constructor and set all the required fields:
#Bean
public JdbcBatchItemWriter<WriterSO> writer(DataSource dataSource, ItemPreparedStatementSetter<WriterSO> setter) {
JdbcBatchItemWriter<WriterSO> jdbcBatchItemWriter = new JdbcBatchItemWriter<>();
jdbcBatchItemWriter.setItemSqlParameterSourceProvider(new BeanPropertyItemSqlParameterSourceProvider<WriterSO>());
jdbcBatchItemWriter.setItemPreparedStatementSetter(setter);
jdbcBatchItemWriter.setSql("insert into writer (id, fullName, randomNum) values (?,?,?)");
jdbcBatchItemWriter.setDataSource(dataSource);
return jdbcBatchItemWriter;
}

Answer 2

Spring Boot 1.5.7 brings Spring Batch 3.0.8 which does not provide builders for item readers and writers.
These builders were introduced in Spring Batch 4 which can be consumed using Spring Boot 2.x.
