Avoid references from camel api and spi to model
------------------------------------------------
Key: CAMEL-4428
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-4428
Project: Camel
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: camel-core
Affects Versions: 2.8.0
Reporter: Christian Schneider
Fix For: 2.9.0
Currently several interfaces and classes in org.apache.camel and
org.apache.camel.spi access classes from org.apache.camel.model.
As the classes in model are forming the dsl they need access to many other
parts of camel. So this creates a lot of dependency cycles. Most importantly
these references make the api not self contained.
So I propose to introduce interfaces on model level that contain the methods
that access the model.
For example there should be a ModelCamelContext that extends CamelContext and
contains methods like :
void startRoute(RouteDefinition route) throws Exception;
DefautlCamelContext will already implement ModelCamelContext so it is ready for
3.0.
To achieve maximum compatiblity we should leave the problematic methods in
CamelContext but deprecate them.
For camel 3.0 we will then remvoe these methods.
