Hey everyone,
I've been working with the Apache Camel PDF Component and my idea is to forward
the content to another endpoint, that it is supposed to send it to another API
through the HTTP component.
So, I've been trying to use a File component that sends the PDFs to the other
direct: route, and I am getting the following exception
***************************************
org.apache.camel.TypeConversionException: Error during type conversion from
type: org.apache.camel.component.file.GenericFile to the required type:
java.io.File with value GenericFile
****************************************
and somehow I am confused, because I never ran to this problem. I thought I
could just use something like this:
********************************
from("file://inputdir/").process(new Processor() {
public void process(Exchange exchange) throws Exception {
Object body = exchange.getIn().getBody();
// do some business logic with the input body
}
}).to(direct:otherendpoint);
***********************************
But it hasnt worked so far. I would appreciate some ideas, on how can I forward
the content of a file somehow to the other route, not sure how the
serialization works here. I am also quite new with the concept of message
forwarding and serialization, so any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your insights.
Best regards,
Jaime P
