------------------------------------

Hi, I'm not sure I understand your response. In fact, I already create one for my project.

like this:

 converter
{code:java}
@Converter
 public List<String> GenericFiletoListString(GenericFile file, Exchange exchange) throws IOException {
    String raw = exchange.getContext().getTypeConverter().convertTo(String.class, file);
    StringReader stringReader = exchange.getContext().getTypeConverter().convertTo(StringReader.class, raw);
    List<String> list = IOUtils.readLines(stringReader);
     return list;
}


{code}
bean processor
{code:java}
public void process(List<String> list) {
    log.info("process : {}", list);
}{code}
 router
{code:java}
from("file://......").bean(fileHandler, "process");
{code}
 

Those code work well without any warning or error(from IDEA,compiler or maven).

 

Why type erasure affect my issue here?

Or it just bad practice to write code like these.

> I think it's useful when we need process files from File or FTP component.
