CamelContext should act like a Component (i.e. a TypeConverter of CamelContext -> CamelContextComponent) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: CAMEL-3563 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-3563 Project: Camel Issue Type: Improvement Components: camel-core Reporter: james strachan Fix For: 2.6.0 Imagine you have a camelContext.xml for production use (e.g. you're creating an OSGi bundle with a camelContext.xml) but you want to create an integration test case that tests out your route. So you want to create a new Camel XML file, testCamel.xml which includes the camelContext.xml and interacts with it. You now have 2 camelContexts. The test route needs to be able to refer to any endpoints inside the other camelContext.xml. CamelContext has an ID (by default camelContext IIRC). so if we have camelContext.xml {code} <camelContext id="prod" ...> <route> <from uri="direct:foo"> ... {code} testCamelContext.xml {code} <camelContext id="test" ...> <route> <from uri="direct:start"> <to uri="prod:direct:foo"/> </route> <route> <from uri="prod:seda:bar"> <to uri="mock:results"/> </route> {code} i.e. in the test case we are routing from our local CamelContext into the production camel context's "direct:start" endpoint and consuming from its "seda:bar" endpoint. i.e. we use "prod" as a name, look it up in the IoC context (just like any other Component), but if its a CamelContext we (via TypeConverters) turn it into a Component that resolves the rest of the name -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
