Checking the body type of an exchange using simple

["Gershaw, Geoffrey A. " <ge...@credit-suisse.com>]

Hello,

I am trying to use header.type in simple to determine the type of the body. I have tried many variations of header ie (in.header, headers) etc, but it always seems like type and BodyType are empty or null.

I have tried with Camel 2.16.1 and 2.16.2. I assume I'm missing something basic.

<camel:log message="HELLO ${header.type}"/>

Thanks,


Geoffrey A Gershaw

If you want to log the type, the you can get the class name

${header.foo.class.name}

(you can omit the getXXX and do XXX)

If you want to check if a body is a specific type using instanceof
then use the is operator

${body} is 'String'
