Hi there,
I seem to have some basic understanding problem of Simple evaluations and it looks like I'm done searching the official docs without any success. Help appreciated. Code: 1 from("timer://twoSecTimer?fixedRate=true&period=60000") 2 .to("sql:select * from messages?dataSourceRef=myDS") 3 .split(body()) 4 .to("log:org.apache.camel?level=DEBUG") 5 .setHeader("partnerName", ExpressionBuilder.simpleExpression("${body[name]}")) 6 .enrich("restlet:http://localhost:8081/PartnerStatus/resources/partnerStatus/{partnerName}?restletMethod=get", new PartnerStatusAggregationStrategy()) 7 .to("log:org.apache.camel?level=DEBUG"); The query results in an Exchange like this: Exchange[BodyType:java.util.LinkedHashMap, Body:{id=0, sender=Sting, severity=0, message=Desert Rose, received=2010-10-29 13:08:14.0}] 1. Question: Why does line 5 result in ExpressionIllegalSyntaxException: Illegal syntax: body[name]. The body is a map, so why can't I lookup a value by [key]? 2. Question: Why doesn't the Simple expression in line 6 (...{partnerName}...) get substituted. No matter if I prepend a $ - it doesn't. I did fix the issue from Question 1 by putting a constant as a header value - no success ... Thanks in advance!
