Hi, Yes it can be done in the processor but I find the code is easier to read in dsl form. Also, I can easily change the dsl to something else (change endpoint or predicate) much easier than rewrite the code in a processor. There are things you get that you don't in a processor, easier way to communicate with systems, message formats, protocols and easier to handle errors and completion and do simple processing using other languages like groovy. I only do processors if it is something I want to hide or complicate enough to warrant a processor.
