UDP: Netty4 vs. Mina2

I'll try a shorter version of my question:


Why does this work:


.to("mina2:udp://localhost:40000?sync=false")

...

from("mina2:udp://localhost:40000?sync=false")


and this doesn't work:


.to("netty4:udp://localhost:40000?sync=false")

...

from("netty4:udp://localhost:40000?sync=false")


In particular, the netty4:udp *write* fails.


Thanks.


p.s.  I found something about using the 'encoder/decoder' params.  But I don't see anything in the docs or book about it being necessary.  Is it required?  All I'm trying to do is write some JSON I got from a Rest call.

Ron,

  I think there is room for improvement there. I opened
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-12813 to setup a proposal in
this respect.
Would you like to have a try with a contribution
https://github.com/apache/camel/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md ? Or, I could
take over if you prefer.

Re: UDP: Netty4 vs. Mina2

Ok, last post.  But I just fixed the route, sans "hack.  And since I've seen lots of other people having problems with Netty, maybe this will help them.


Instead of the transform().method(...) call, just do:


.convertBodyTo(String.class, “UTF-8”)

Problem solved.

(Holy cow did this take me too long to figure out...)

Hi, Alex.  Thank you you for your help.


I had read all of those pages (amongst the million or so I scanned...) but your comment made it clearer as to what's possibly going on.


As it turned out, earlier today I accidentally stumbled upon a hackish solution (think: Infinite Monkey Theorem) which fixed my Netty4/UDP write problems. 


I didn't have to use any encoders/decoders. (And OMG, that was a Dante-esque trip through Hell ... no offense, Claus; I love Camel).


I just had to do this one transform() (see below) ... which, I'm still not sure what's going on, as the bean's method is simply returning the passed in JSON string as a String ... and that was all that was needed.  I guess the method is setting something on the Exchange's OutBody (?) that is making everything kosher for Netty?


Of course, a String is serializable, but why couldn't I just go directly from the endpoint (which is already returning a string representing a JSON array) to Netty?


Anyway, here's the full text of my Server's route builder, along with the hack.


I would love to hear how this fixed my route!


Thank you again.


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


@Component
public class Route extends RouteBuilder
{
@Override
public void configure () throws Exception
{
restConfiguration()
.host("localhost").port(8080)
.bindingMode(RestBindingMode.json);

from("timer:autos?period={{timer.period}}")
.streamCaching()
.to("rest:get:auto/list")
.to("direct:udp");

from("direct:udp")
.log("*** BEFORE write to UDP: ${body}")
.transform().method("myBean", "foo") // XXX: this one line hack fixed it
.to("netty4:udp://localhost:40000?udpConnectionlessSending=true&sync=false")
.log("*** AFTER write to UDP: ${body}");
}

@Component("myBean")
public class Encoder  
{
public String foo (String val) {
return val;
}
}
}

Re: UDP: Netty4 vs. Mina2

Hi Ron,

By default, camel-netty4 includes default codecs based on java
serialization. So, it could be that your payload is NOT Serializable.
You would then need to configure codecs matching your case.

You may find below links of interest:
https://github.com/apache/camel/blob/master/components/camel-netty4/src/main/docs/netty4-component.adoc#using-multiple-codecs
https://github.com/apache/camel/blob/master/components/camel-netty4/src/test/resources/org/apache/camel/component/netty4/multiple-codecs.xml
https://github.com/apache/camel/blob/master/components/camel-ganglia/src/test/java/org/apache/camel/component/ganglia/GangliaProtocolV31CamelTest.java#L214-L257

Hope this help,
Alex
