["Claus Ibsen (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/CAMEL-2169?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=55384#action_55384 ] 

Claus Ibsen commented on CAMEL-2169:
------------------------------------

That is what the direct endpoint is for, it allows you to link routes together. 

And a route do have an id its just a marker id that you can use in JMX for example to start/stop the route etc. Also from the Camel API you can use that id.

> Camel routes embedded in camel contexts have no identifiers thus for a route to kick in it has to start (in some cases at least) from a "from:" rule. Example from a route working in SMX/JBI :
> <camel:camelContext>
> 	  <camel:route>
> 	     <camel:from uri="jbi:endpoint:http://servicemix.apache.org/samples/wsdl-first/receiver/endpoint" />
>              <camel:to uri="jbi:endpoint:http://servicemix.apache.org/samples/wsdl-first/staticlistener/staticendpoint" />
>           </camel:route>
> </camel:camelContext>
> The problem is that it makes a given route definition 'unportable' and requires a Camel developer to know some cryptic details like the fully qualified name of the internal JBI endpoint.
> If I could do something like
> <camel:camelContext>
> 	  <camel:route id="{http://servicemix.apache.org/samples/wsdl-first/receiver}endpoint">
>              <camel:to uri="jbi:endpoint:http://servicemix.apache.org/samples/wsdl-first/staticlistener/staticendpoint" />
>           </camel:route>
> </camel:camelContext>
> then I'd be able to delegate to it easily from some other JBI endpoint, using targetService="person:endpoint"
> Likewise, camel routes could delegate to other routes :
> <camel:route id="{http://servicemix.apache.org/samples/wsdl-first/receiver}endpoint">
>              <camel:to uri="route:http://servicemix.apache.org/samples/wsdl-first/staticlistener/staticendpoint" />
> </camel:route>
