Re: Camel Routing based on bean return object

[ee7arh <an...@2e-systems.com>]

Hi Markus,

Thanks for advice. Yes that would work but as you pointed out it's not ideal
since it's then not possible to see where the message will end up just by
reading the Routing definition. I would like to make my RouteBuilder as
readable as possible.

Does you know whether it's possible to cast the "body()" of a message to
it's base object?

Perhaps this would work?

from("jms:queue:queue1").to("bean:myBeanMethod1").choice()
.when(body().convertTo(MyReturnCodeEnum.class).isEqualTo(MyReturnCodeEnum.ERROR_CODE_1))
.to("jms:queue:error1Queue")
.when(body().convertTo(MyReturnCodeEnum.class).isEqualTo(MyReturnCodeEnum.ERROR_CODE_2))
.to("jms:queue:error2Queue")

I assumed in above example that the actual object on the "from" queue is the
MyReturnCodeEnum object now rather than the wrapping object MyReturnObj1

Thanks
Andrew

Ah now I got the issue. The predicate being tested using isEqualTo
does not automatic convert to same types.
I worked on that a bit, but then realized we cant make a safe
assumption which side of the operator RIGHT or LEFT should be
converter to the other type.

How should camel know which types is correct.

An example:
The left type (= body) can be an Integer with a value of 1. And the
left side is the enum with the ERROR_CODE_1 value.

The two types are not directly comparable so we need to convert it.
But which type is the best?
- Integer
- Enum

In this case it should be enum, but there could be other situations
where the predicate should test for reverse.

Maybe its possible to add tests for all combinations and return true
if there is a match in one of them?



So you can do the body stuff you do, but I think there is a shorthand
when(body(MyReturnCodeEnum.class).isEqualTo(ERROR_CODE_1)

And do a static import of your enum so its shorter to write.
