Yeah there is a cache option you can use to tell Camel to cache the instance and reuse the same instance, or if cache=false then Camel will lookup on each processing, but then in the end it also depends how its configured in spring/blueprint etc. As if its defines as a singleton scope then its the same instance anyway. Mind there was a issue with the cache option in Camel, that is fixed for 2.14.0 - see the release notes. > > On 3 September 2014 09:12, rickaroni <rgfa...@directv.com> wrote: > >> Hi Claus, >> >> I'm still a bit confused with precisely how the Camel "bean" tag works and >> interacts with Spring prototype beans. >> >> With similar ESB's to Camel, I've seen folks write their own Spring custom >> scope such that the same bean is used from when the input message received >> by the ESB to when the output message sent from the ESB to the next stage. >> >> After reading your great reply to this post >> (http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/Bean-s-scope-in-Camel-td5737137.html), >> I >> started thinking that I might not need to write this. >> >> Accordingly, I had some follow-up questions here that I hope are clear: >> >> http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/lt-to-quot-bean-xxx-quot-or-not-lt-to-quot-bean-xxx-quot-Getting-clarity-on-bean-scope-td5754593.html >> >> Basically, if I have a spring prototype bean declared in my spring config >> (e.g. myAwesomeBean), and multiple calls to it in one or more routes (e.g. >> calls to myBeanMethod2, 3, and 4 in ROUTE2 and ROUTE3), is the same bean >> instance used throughout??? >> >> Where can I look to get a better understanding of Camel "bean" tag usage >> (or >> use of a bean as a "to" destination) and the lifetime of a Spring >> "prototype" bean within a Camel route?? >> >> Many thanks in advance for any help you can offer. >> >> Rick >> >> >> >> >> -- >> View this message in context: >> http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/Claus-Need-better-understanding-of-Camel-bean-tag-usage-with-Spring-prototype-beans-tp5756009.html >> Sent from the Camel - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. >> > > > > -- > Matt Sicker <boa...@gmail.com> -- Claus Ibsen ----------------- Red Hat, Inc.
