I recently had a project that required integration with MSMQ. In the end we found it easier to use C# to write a bridge that relayed all the messages from MSMQ on to ActiveMQ which we then used Camel with. You can publish to ActiveMQ from C# really easily with Apache NMS and Spring.NET.

Then as you require differnet kinds of connectivity and transformation you add the appropriate jars. In order to use camel you'd need to find a way to consume messages in java from your MsMQ broker. Once you can do that it would be a simple matter of populating a camel exchange with the data from the consumed message and injecting it into camel with a ProducerTemplate. Taking a quick scan around there seem to be some commercial options and this open source library (http://jmsmq.sourceforge.net/) that might help you though I've never used it and your mileage will definitely vary. How are consuming messages on linux and solaris? Might the same consumption mechanism be available to help you here. If you're looking to migrate away from the MsMQ broker there a number of things you could do while transitioning to ease the pain e.g. You could read the messages in .Net and make a http call with the contents into a Camel based application. From there the world (as accessible via camel's myriad components) is your oyster. Post your ideas and folks will be glad to help you out. As to security, what kind of security are you looking for? Camel 's routing gives you full access all the message details which allow you to easily examine and veto message routing based on the message content and context. Depending on what components you use you can absolutely leverage the protocol level security features if they're exposed e.g. HTTP authentication and HTTPS are easily configurable for camel-http. If you can be more specific about your requirements we can shed more light. rgds, ste On Sat, Jan 2, 2010 at 11:36 AM, scope_creep <scope_cr...@hotmail.com> wrote: > > > Bob. > > I'm a newbie on the Apache stack, so bear with me, although i've used the > webserver for donkeys. > I'm really interested in ApAche camel for its primary purpose which is > routing.
