`MultiResourceItemReader<T>`	`build()`	Builds the `MultiResourceItemReader`.
`MultiResourceItemReaderBuilder<T>`	`comparator(java.util.Comparator<org.springframework.core.io.Resource> comparator)`	Used to order the injected resources, by default compares `Resource.getFilename()` values.
`MultiResourceItemReaderBuilder<T>`	`delegate(ResourceAwareItemReaderItemStream<? extends T> delegate)`	Establishes the delegate to use for reading the resources provided.
`MultiResourceItemReaderBuilder<T>`	`name(java.lang.String name)`	The name used to calculate the key within the `ExecutionContext`.
`MultiResourceItemReaderBuilder<T>`	`resources(org.springframework.core.io.Resource[] resources)`	The array of resources that the `MultiResourceItemReader` will use to retrieve items.
`MultiResourceItemReaderBuilder<T>`	`saveState(boolean saveState)`	Configure if the state of the `ItemStreamSupport` should be persisted within the `ExecutionContext` for restart purposes.
`MultiResourceItemReaderBuilder<T>`	`setStrict(boolean strict)`	In strict mode the reader will throw an exception on `MultiResourceItemReader.open(org.springframework.batch.item.ExecutionContext)` if there are no resources to read.

  - saveState
```
public MultiResourceItemReaderBuilder<T> saveState(boolean saveState)
```
    Configure if the state of the ItemStreamSupport should be persisted within the ExecutionContext for restart purposes.
    Parameters:
    saveState - defaults to true
    Returns:
    The current instance of the builder.
  - name
```
public MultiResourceItemReaderBuilder<T> name(java.lang.String name)
```
    The name used to calculate the key within the ExecutionContext. Required if saveState(boolean) is set to true.
    Parameters:
    name - name of the reader instance
    Returns:
    The current instance of the builder.

    ItemStreamSupport.setName(String)
  - resources
```
public MultiResourceItemReaderBuilder<T> resources(org.springframework.core.io.Resource[] resources)
```
    The array of resources that the MultiResourceItemReader will use to retrieve items.
    Parameters:
    resources - the array of resources to use.
    Returns:
    this instance for method chaining.
    See Also:
    MultiResourceItemReader.setResources(Resource[])
  - delegate
```
public MultiResourceItemReaderBuilder<T> delegate(ResourceAwareItemReaderItemStream<? extends T> delegate)
```
    Establishes the delegate to use for reading the resources provided.
    Parameters:
    delegate - reads items from single Resource.
    Returns:
    this instance for method chaining.

  - setStrict
```
public MultiResourceItemReaderBuilder<T> setStrict(boolean strict)
```
    In strict mode the reader will throw an exception on MultiResourceItemReader.open(org.springframework.batch.item.ExecutionContext) if there are no resources to read.
    Parameters:
    strict - false by default.
    Returns:
    this instance for method chaining.
    See Also:
    MultiResourceItemReader.setStrict(boolean)
  - comparator
```
public MultiResourceItemReaderBuilder<T> comparator(java.util.Comparator<org.springframework.core.io.Resource> comparator)
```
    Used to order the injected resources, by default compares Resource.getFilename() values.
    Parameters:
    comparator - the comparator to use for ordering resources.
    Returns:
    this instance for method chaining.
    See Also:
    MultiResourceItemReader.setComparator(Comparator)
