Confusion about Camel routing in SMX 4

[crankydillo <cr...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I am deploying JBI components into the ServiceMix 4 environment.  In my 
code I have created a few extensions of RouteBuilder.  In my beans.xml, 
I have the following:

    <osgi:camelContext 
xmlns="http://activemq.apache.org/camel/schema/spring">
         <package>org.samuel.controller</package>
     </osgi:camelContext>

I can see my routes getting used.  However, I'm concerned that I'm 
somehow mucking with something more far reaching.  In other words, I'm 
guessing my RouteBuilders are affecting some CamelContext that reaches 
across all of SMX.

Mostly, I'm worried about what happens if I do something incorrectly. 
For example, if my Processor code throws an NPE or I route to a 
non-existant JBI endpoint, will I be screwing up the CamelContext for 
all other routes?

My overarching question is: does what I've described sound reasonable or 
  am I going way off course?

Thanks.

No, your bad processor and route will not affect other routes of the 
same camel context.

As each route will not see other routes in the same camel context, and 
camel context holds some resources like components, endpoints, etc for 
route to use.
