I have a similar requirement but only difference is I do have a message to
send but I expect replies in asyncronous fashion. so I would vote for
suggested feature.
Though it is not elegant I am thinking of using this solution for now, may
be it will work for you also and just send a blank message.
may be you can have a timer consumer instead of file below.
from("file:///test/test/response")
.convertBodyTo(String.class).threads(1)
.to("mina:tcp://localhost:6202?sync=false&textline=true&filters=#listFilters");
from("vm:response")
.to("log:+++ reply++++");
public class MessageFilter extends IoFilterAdapter {
@Produce(uri = "vm:response")
ProducerTemplate producer;
@Override
public void messageReceived(NextFilter nextFilter, IoSession
session,
Object message) throws Exception {
if (message instanceof String) {
producer.sendBody(message);
}
nextFilter.messageReceived(session, message);
}
}
