You don't necessarily have to use xml like the example. If the rest of your code uses annotation, you could simply do the following.

public ItemWriter writerOne(){
    ItemWriter writer = new ItemWriter();
    //your logic here
    return writer;
}

public ItemWriter writerTwo(){
    ItemWriter writer = new ItemWriter();
    //your logic here
    return writer;
}

public CompositeItemWriter compositeItemWriter(){
    CompositeItemWriter writer = new CompositeItemWriter();
    writer.setDelegates(Arrays.asList(writerOne(),writerTwo()));
    return writer;
}
