pollEnrich and with two file endpoints is not supported

["John J. Franey" <jj...@gmail.com>]

I have a route the has to read two files and combine them.  I used pollEnrich
and got this error message:

Camel currently does not support pollEnrich from a file/ftp endpoint when
the route also started from a file/ftp endpoint.

What is the reason behind this limitation?

What can I do to work around it?

I'm using camel 2.3.

Thanks,
John

There is a limitation how this is handled internally in Camel. So you
would end up with multiple files interleaved and Camel will not be
able to do completion correctly, eg to delete / move the files etc.

There is a JIRA Ticket to improve this in the future.

Read and merge the files manually
For example from a bean or Camel Processor so you can do it in regular
Java code.
