Christian Ohr created CAMEL-8079: ------------------------------------ Summary: Provide possibility to delegate charset evaluation of a HL7 message to HL7DataFormat Key: CAMEL-8079 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-8079 Project: Camel Issue Type: New Feature Components: camel-hl7 Reporter: Christian Ohr Fix For: 2.14.1, 2.15.0
The HL7Codec directly creates a String from the message, using the charset hardcoded in its HL7MLLPConfig. This is too static. * The field MSH-18 of the message may contain the charset in which the message is encoded (much like encoding=... in the XML header) and which shall be used for decoding. * Other information nested the exchange may also be usable to derive the appropriate charset if MSH-18 is empty. The attached patch improves the behavior in a backwards-compatible way. * HL7MLLPCodec has a new property named "produceString" (default true). If set to false, the codec sends a byte array into the route instead of a string. In this case, no charset is evaluated yet. * the HL7DataFormat checks the field MSH-18 for the charset to be used for marshalling and unmarshalling. If MSH-18 is empty, it uses the standard Camel charset properties/headers by default. If MSH-18 was populated, the value is copied to a new message header "CamelHL7Charset" * the HL7DataFormat also offers an extension point in order to "guess" the charset from the byte array content (e.g. using ICU4J's CharsetDetector). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
