I needed the current raw line from the underlying input resource when processing flatfiles. Therefore i subclassed DelimitedLineTokenizer to have a getter for the last read line. Dont think this was a clean way to do though. Might be interesting to others. See my attached subclass in #BATCH-630.

Can you explain what your usecase is? It seems you need to work with both the raw line and its FieldSet representation at the same time, but I don't understand why.

Hi again,
I really work with the FieldSet which itself is exactly what i need. I am mapping the FieldSet to multiple domain objects via Dozer (which btw is a great complementary product to spring batch). The DO's are then saved via hibernate. I also save the raw line within one domainobject to hibernate to trace the origin of the resulting data. Its much easier to do investigation on problems when the raw line is in a sql table, too.
