> In the XML DSL, some of the EIPs etc. have an attribute where you can configure a Class<?> type. For example <xpath> has a resultType attribute. 
> The XSD type is a xs:string.
> The problem is JAXB can only convert the xs:string to a Class<?> if the class can be loaded by JAXB/JDK. This may not work to well with custom types in OSGi / JBoss etc. 
> Instead we should use ClassResolver from CamelContext to lookup those classes, as it works in OSGI/blueprint/JBoss etc.
