Christian Schneider commented on CAMEL-4564:
--------------------------------------------

How about leaving the current DSL element as is and create a new one like .routeTo(Expr) which only sends to one endpoint?

> Currently the dynamic router loops over evaluating the expression and sending to the endpoint till the expression returns null.
> This is not really what the EIP dynamic router says. The pattern says "the Dynamic Router evaluates all rules and routes the message to the recipient whose rules are fulfilled".
> So for me this sounds like we should only send to one endpoint.
> So my proposal is to change the dynamicRouter so it simply evaluates the expression as a uri and routes to this destination if it is not null else it simply passes the exchange to the next processor.
> As some people may use the loop functionality I propose to add a new DSL element that mimics the current behaviour. A first proposal for a name is .loopTo(Expression) . So this means loop and send to the endpoint specified by the expression.
