Done
In this example, I do need to manually create xml/report.xml into the classpath. Ideally it should be automatic. Right?

Answer 1

I got the solution to this problem from the link: Complex XML using Spring Batch; StaxEventItemWriter ; Jaxb2Marshaller. Also I should use
<bean id="xmlItemWriter" class="org.springframework.batch.item.xml.StaxEventItemWriter">
<property name="resource" value="file:outputs/report.xml" />
<property name="encoding" value="ISO-8859-1" />
<property name="version" value="1.0" />
<property name="marshaller" ref="reportMarshaller" />
<property name="rootTagName" value="record" />
</bean>
