Hi all, I have a problem that I need to solve and I would like to get a few ideas about the best options on how to do it since I am new to Camel.
So I do need to implement a gateway to consume XML based messages from a server. Initially I thought that Netty Consumer mode sounds like it would match but it needs to be an outgoing tcp connection to the server. Here is how it works: There is a blackbox style server that is located somewhere performing some kind of business logic. This server is listening on tcp port XYZ. Now if an authorized IP address is connecting as a client to this port the server immediately starts to dump XML debug messages to the connection. The client doesn't need to do/send anything, just connect and then start to consume the XML messages. Now Camel is supposed to be the client consumer and I need to implement a gateway that connects to the server and read the XML messages from the tcp session. The gateway should also auto-reconnect in case the blackbox server was rebooted or crashed or whatever. Any good ideas about how to get this going? It would be very much appreciated! Thanks, Thorsten
