Hello. Using Camel blueprint dsl, I was able to get hold of an endpoint, e.g. an AMQP endpoint:
<bean factory-method="configure" factory-ref="amqpConfigurator" id="MessageFlow_4_configurator"> <argument ref="MessageFlow_4"/> </bean> <camel:camelContext id="amqp"> ... <camel:endpoint id="MessageFlow_4" uri="amqp:queue:myqueue?connectionFactory=#qpidConnectionFactory_MessageFlow_4&..."/> <camel:route id="Process_1"> <camel:from uri="ref:MessageFlow_4"/> <camel:bean ref="MessageFlow_4_configurator"/> By doing so, I could hand over that endpoint to a "endpoint configurator bean" to manipulate that endpoint. In my particular case, I want to extend or replace the AMQPBinding, which is set onto the endpoint. With https://camel.apache.org/components/4.8.x/others/java-xml-io-dsl.html I do not see to have the same option to define or obtain the endpoint. Also, I cannot find another extension mechanism for the binding in particular. For endpoint configuration options (like the AMQPConfiguration) there is a mechanism via the "configuration" parameter on the endpoint, but nothing similar for the binding. I assume the same problem is true for JMS, MAIL adapters and probably more. The only way I can currently think of is to create my own Camel component wrapping and extending the AMQP component. I would appreciate your feedback on this and hope to get some more ideas. Best regards Jens Kordowski
