james strachan commented on CAMEL-4122:
---------------------------------------
In ActiveMQ and ServiceMix you can view/create/delete endpoints at any time.
This is simple and flexible. The fact that the only way to do that in Camel is
by creating a route or sending to it is a bit of an omission IMHO.
e.g. you can create an endpoint directly in camel-web; then browse messages &
send message to it - then at some point later on, write some kind of route or
create a consumer or whatever.
Tooling of all kinds (command lines, web apps & IDEs) then browse endpoints to
help you design/edit routes or move messages from endpoint to endpoint (whether
there exists right now a route using the endpoint or not).
When a user is 'playing' in development mode its natural to just create
endpoints up front.
So just because typically at deployment time, the way to create endpoints is
lazily via route definitions is kinda mute point. Just like in JMS, the way to
create destinations is to send/consume; its handy for developers to be able to
do so up front - whether there is currently a route/consumer nor not.

> we can create endpoints on the fly via the camel-web REST API; or by just
> sending a message to a new endpoint URI or consuming from a URI. But there is
> currently no JMX way to do so which is a bit of an omission.
> Something like...
> createEndpoint(String uri);
> would be a nice addition to the MBeans API on a ManagedCamelContext. Maybe a
> removeEndpoint(String uri) too would be handy.
