>             Project: Apache Camel
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: camel-core
>    Affects Versions: 1.6.1
>         Environment: Java SE 5

> When a message is sent to a bean: endpoint, camel searches for a method with the right signature.  If multiple methods are found, an exception is thrown.
> If a have an interface like
> public interface <T> I {
>   T function(T arg);
> }
> and a class like
> public class C implements I<Number> {
>   Number function(Number arg) {
>     return new Double(arg.doubleValue() * 2);
>   }
> }
> then I can't use an instance of C as an endpoint.
> The problem is that under the hood java has created a bridge method, and the "real" class C looks like
> public class C implements I<Number> {
>   Number function(Number arg) {
>     return new Double(arg.doubleValue() * 2);
>   }
>   Object function(Object arg) {
>     return function((Number) arg);
>   }
> }
> Camel then discovers that there are two methods it could call (f(Object) and f(Number)) and throws an exception even though there's no real ambiguity because both methods do the same thing.
> I recommend rejecting bridge methods in BeanInfo.isValidMethod with somehting like
> if (method.isBridgeMethod()) return false;
> Does this sound reasonable?
