-1 This change would NOT be transparent to 2.x users. Lets not hurt our 2.x Camel community! This should have been a discussion about how we could improve Camel 3.x.
>From my point of view, Camel is all about being flexible and an integrating as many technologies as possible and avoid exclusive of approaches. I think that needs to continue even in how you configure endpoints. You might be able to convince me that most camel components SHOULD validate their endpoint config uri using the Java URI class. Or that components should have a more formal way of expressing what endpoint config syntax it expects. java.lang.String is the most flexible and OPEN configuration java class we have. Lets keep it that way. On Tue, Jun 19, 2012 at 8:37 PM, Hadrian Zbarcea <hzbar...@gmail.com> wrote: > Using URIs to identify and configure Endpoints is a notable Apache Camel > innovation.
