Enable transaction propagation for SEDA component
-------------------------------------------------

                 Key: CAMEL-2729
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/CAMEL-2729
             Project: Apache Camel
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 2.2.0
            Reporter: Sergio Bossa
         Attachments: seda-camel.zip

I was recently working on a pure SEDA prototype based on Camel and ActiveMQ, 
and the biggest problem I had was the lack of transaction propagation among 
stages/threads, due to the Spring transaction-per-thread model which Camel 
relies on.
Hence, it is currently impossible to commit/rollback transactions from a 
different stage than the one that initiated it.

So, I developed a patch to org.apache.camel.component.jms.JmsConfiguration 
class in order to use a custom 
org.springframework.jms.listener.AbstractMessageListenerContainer which enables 
external transaction management.
Then, I developed a Camel bean component to bind and propagate transactional 
resources among threads, and manually commit/rollback transactions.
I'm attaching a sample project containing and showcasing all this stuff: it 
reads from an ActiveMQ queue, does dummy processing, and puts on another queue.
In order to run:
$> mvn test
In order to run with an injected fault and do rollback:
$> mvn test -Pfault-test
WARN: requires a local ActiveMQ broker at tcp://localhost:61616

I'd like to gain some feedback and eventually talk about including such a 
features into Camel code base, which would require to:
1) Patch JmsConfiguration in order to allow injection of external 
AbstractMessageListenerContainer implementations.
2) Patch JmsConfiguration in order to avoid forcing to set the 
TransactionManager.
3) Somewhat enrich the Seda component to natively support transaction 
propagation.

Feel free to ask any question, and thanks for listening!
