Claus Ibsen commented on CAMEL-1077:
------------------------------------

James what is the difference between
{code}
from("mina-server:localhost").bean(Somethings.class);
{code}

And what we have now in camel-mina?
{code}
from("mina:tcp:localhost").bean(Somethings.class);
{code}

I.e. reading this user guide from Mina
http://mina.apache.org/quick-start-guide.html

Shows how to setup Mina as a TCP server and this is excatly what we do in 
camel-mina today in the MinaConsumer.



> tcp client mode / server mode determined by "to" or "from" elements limits 
> usability.

>             Project: Apache Camel
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: camel-mina
>    Affects Versions: 1.0.0, 1.1.0, 1.2.0, 1.3.0, 1.4.0, 1.5.0
>            Reporter: Jeff Vienneau

> Internally, 
> MinaProducer is coded to create a Mina connector (client mode socket).
> MinaConsumer is coded to create a Mina acceptor (server mode socket).
> Additionally, it appears a producer (client mode socket) is created for a 
> "to" route mapping and a consumer (server mode socket) is created for a 
> "from" route mapping.
> This means an endpoint cannot be created in which the session is initiated by 
> a client and messages are routed "to" the client. 
> The opposite is also true, an endpoint with a "from" route mapping cannot 
> establish a connection to a tcp server.
> This is a major limitation, as we do not often have control over the systems 
> with which we are interfacing.
> Perhaps, the mina::tcp URI could have a parameter the sets the socket mode: 
> tcp.mode=server or tcp.mode=client.
> Hope this make sense, thanks!
