We have a header entry that has multiple entries that are in the response
HTTP message. These multiple entries are available in CXF, as each header
value is represented as a list. However, when this message is propagated
back to camel, only the first entry of this list is read into the camel
message's headers.
Looking at the current camel-cxf code in trunk as shown below, I don't see
an available option to propagate multiple entries back into the camel's
message header.
// Copy the CXF protocol headers to the camel headers
Map<String, List<String>> cxfHeaders =
CastUtils.cast((Map<?,
?>)message.get(Message.PROTOCOL_HEADERS));
if (cxfHeaders != null) {
for (Map.Entry<String, List<String>> entry :
cxfHeaders.entrySet()) {
if (!strategy.applyFilterToExternalHeaders(entry.getKey(),
entry.getValue(), exchange)) {
headers.put(entry.getKey(), entry.getValue().get(0));
}
}
}
Is this assumption correct and if so, has there been some work on how to
get the multiple entries propagate back to camel? I can think of several
strategy/options to not to break the existing applications and I was
wondering if we can add such an option.
I appreciate for your advice.
