Enable async request-reply by enhancing the CamelInvocationHandler so that it is serializable, so that camel-spring Proxies can be passed as callback objects -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: CAMEL-2026 URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/CAMEL-2026 Project: Apache Camel Issue Type: Improvement Components: camel-core, camel-spring Affects Versions: 2.0.0 Reporter: Scott Clasen With minor alteration, the CamelInvocationHandler could be made serializable, and then camel-spring bean proxies could be passed as callback objects in method calls on other camel-spring proxies...enabling async request-reply via spring remoting. I have achieved this by Wrapping the CamelInvocationHandler, subclassing the CamelProxyFactoryBean, and by attaching a processor to routes that can recieve BeanInvocations that have a callback object. Integrated into the codebase, this could be much more straightforward, and not require a processor be attached. =================CamelInvocationHandlerWrapper /** * Serializable wrapper for Camel/Spring remoting proxies. */ public class CamelInvocationHandlerWrapper implements InvocationHandler, Serializable { /* Findbugs will complain that inner dosent get set at deserialization time.
