If you're committed to writing a Processor, you can perhaps use
ProducerTemplate, which lets you send an Exchange to a String URI.
public class FooSearch implements Processor
{
ProducerTemplate producer;
public FooSearch(CamelContext context)
{ producer = context.createProducerTemplate(); }
public void process(Exchange exchange)
{
String startdate = <compute start date>;
String enddate = <compute end date>;
producer.send("http://www.foo.com/search?startdate=";
+ startdate
+ "&enddate="
+ enddate,
exchange);
}
}
