Mastering Apache Camel

Example – creating an OSGi bundle with a bean

We illustrate the use of beans in a simple example. This example will create an OSGi bundle containing a bean called by a Camel route.

We will create a bean used in two parts of a route:

• One that directly uses the Camel bean component to change the body of the in message
• Another to define a header in the route

First, we create the Maven project pom.xml for our bundle:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd"> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>com.packt.camel</groupId> <artifactId>chapter4</artifactId> ...
