Its primarily intended for being a really small and simple language for evaluating <a shape="rect" href="expression.html">Expression</a> and <a shape="rect" href="predicate.html">Predicate</a> without requiring any new dependencies or knowledge of <a shape="rect" href="xpath.html">XPath</a>; so its ideal for testing in camel-core.

There is a few changes in the syntax which are no longer backwards compatible. When using <a shape="rect" href="simple.html">Simple</a> language as a <a shape="rect" href="predicate.html">Predicate</a> then the literal text <strong>must</strong> be enclosed in either single or double quo
 tes. For example: <code>"${body} == 'Camel'"</code>. Notice how we have single quotes around the literal.
