Hi, I'm a newbie to Camel and I'm currently evaluating the product.
I am reading through the
http://camel.apache.org/tutorial-example-reportincident-part5.html
ReportIncident tutorial and I see the following example:
from(cxfEndpoint)
.setHeader(FileComponent.HEADER_FILE_NAME,
BeanLanguage.bean(FilenameGenerator.class,"generateFilename"))
.to("velocity:MailBody.vm")
.to("file://target/subfolder");
The bit I am having troubles with is setting a header which I assume is then
used by the file endpoint.
I would have thought it would be better to pass some context to the file
endpoint as follows:
from(cxfEndpoint)
.to("velocity:MailBody.vm")
.to("file://target/subfolder", new FilenameGenerator());
Is this practice of setting headers common in Camel? I feel it's a bit
hacky.
Thanks in advance,
Lance.
