On spring batch it s writer.setShouldDeleteIfEmpty(true); with FlatFileItemWriter How do it on EasyBatch wiith FileRecordWriter please?

You can't do it with the FileRecordWriter. It is not the responsibility of the writer to delete or move the file if no records have been written. You can do that using a JobListener#afterJob instead, something like:

public void afterJob(JobReport jobReport) {
    if (jobReport.getMetrics().getWriteCount() == 0) {
        delete(yourFile);
    }
}
