James,
The _ is indeed a Scala specific construct: it represents a parameter in
a function literal -- in our case this often represents the Camel
Exchange. You only need them if you are using Scala function literals
though, I managed to get rid of them using partially applied functions
for the other supported languages like xpath and jxpath a while ago.
You can find an xpath example in
http://svn.eu.apache.org/repos/asf/activemq/camel/trunk/components/camel-scala/src/test/scala/org/apache/camel/scala/dsl/SplitterRouteBuilderTest.scala
and a jxpath one in
http://svn.eu.apache.org/repos/asf/activemq/camel/trunk/components/camel-scala/src/test/scala/org/apache/camel/scala/dsl/RecipientListRouteTest.scala
Regards,
Gert

Its well worth looking at the Scala DSL which looks great; maybe they
could both look and feel kinda similar? FWIW the only thing I don't
like with the scala DSL is the use of _ which is a bit odd - but thats
a scala thing
