I have tried and completely failed to use the camel spring container.
I see where it can do two things:
1) create a context which instantiates RouteBuilders in a given package:
<bean id="camel" class="org.apache.camel.spring.CamelContextFactoryBean">
<property name="packages" value="org.apache.camel.spring.example"/>
</bean>
I can't even guess what the need for that is, unless it's just a shortcut
for declaring those RouteBuilders in the xml.
Bingo! :)
2) create RouteBuilders in xml:
<routeBuilder id="buildSimpleRoute"
xmlns="http://activemq.apache.org/camel/schema/camel-1.0.xsd";>
<route>
<from uri="queue:a"/>
<to uri="queue:b"/>
</route>
</routeBuilder>
That seems more useful, since I can get the routes and add them to a
CamelContext, like this:
container = new DefaultCamelContext();
//or: container = SpringCamelContext.springCamelContext(ctx);
Map<String, RouteBuilder> map = ctx.getBeansOfType(RouteBuilder.class);
Iterator<RouteBuilder> iter = map.values().iterator();
List<Route> routes = new ArrayList<Route>();
while(iter.hasNext()) {
RouteBuilder builder = iter.next();
try {
routes.addAll(builder.getRouteList());
} catch (Exception e) {
log.error(e);
}
}
container.addRoutes(routes);
container.start();
The problem is, the routes don't work.
Doing this by hand, you need to make sure you inject the context into
the RouteBuilder.
You could instead do...
container.addRoutes(builder);
which will probably fix your issue.
Note that if you are using a spring.xml file you can just use the
CamelContextFactoryBean directly then when you look up your
CamelContext it will have all the routes configured...

there's a test case that shows this working...
