There are a few possibilities when using spring beans in your camel routes. But
I was wondering what the common best practice is.
1) Use the class in the .bean method:
from("direct://start")
.bean(MyService.class, "process")
.end();
Normally Camel will then create a new instance of MyService class.
But from what I've tested this won't happen if you do annotate the service with
@Service (or @Component).
So no new Myservice instance is created and the Spring managed bean is used.
2) The other possibility is to use autowiring
@Autowired
Private MyService myService;
...
from("direct://start")
.bean(myservice, "process")
.end();
At the moment I'm using #2.
Because it's easier to see that it is in fact a spring managed bean. And not a
newly created object.
Any thoughts?
