jaxws and camel route within servicemix

Question

I would like to do something like this:

<jaxws:endpoint id="AbcEsbHTTPEndpoint" 
    implementor="com.abc.esb.ABCWSServiceImpl"
    address="/ABCWSServiceService"
    wsdlLocation="wsdl/ABCWSService.wsdl"
    endpointName="e:ABCWSService"
    serviceName="s:ABCWSServiceService"
    xmlns:e="http://com.abc.esb/abcesb/services/ABCWSService"
    xmlns:s="http://com.abc.esb/abcesb/services/ABCWSService">
</jaxws:endpoint>


<camelContext xmlns="http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring">
    <route>
        <from uri="cxf:bean://ABCWSServiceService"/>
        <to uri="cxf:bean:decodeClient"/>
    </route>
</camelContext>    

<jaxws:client id="decodeClient" 
    address="http://ESB-DEV1:9081/abcesb/services/Decoder"
    wsdlLocation="http://ESB-DEV1:9081/abcesb/services/Decoder?wsdl" 
    serviceClass="com.abc.esb.ABCServiceInterface" 
    abstract="true" > 
</jaxws:client>  

I don't understand how to configure the camel route from the <jaxws:endpoint> to the <jaxws:client> What is the syntax to use?? I know you can use <cxf:cxfEndpoint> but I don't want to use that if I don't have to.

I know how to do this with JBI, but I'm wanting to deploy this into servicemix using a OSGI bundle, not JBI.

Answer 1

The jaxws:client you have in your configuration is an endpoint as is the jaxws:endpoint and could be connected using the bean component:

<camelContext xmlns="http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring">
    <route>
        <from uri="bean:AbcEsbHTTPEndpoint"/>
        <to uri="bean:decodeClient"/>
    </route>
</camelContext>

Usually there's a need to do something in between - say to adapt the message in some way - but the above will achieve the routing at least.

Answer 2

See some of the cxf examples from the examples in the camel distribution. They show how to setup cxf, not as jbi.

Thanks for the response. Yeah, I've looked through those quite a bit. I think the example (camel-example-cxf-proxy) is exact use case. Based on this example I can use a camel route from a "cxf:cxfEndpoint" configured end point. I was curious if I could use a camel route to from a "jaxws:endpoint" end point. I didn't know the syntax in the camel route to reference the jaxws:endpoint. Thanks for your help! – Alyse

Guido, i am also try to install camel-example-cxf-proxy into serviceMix 4.3.0. The installation is fine (install -s wrap:file:/c:/...jar). But it looks like the example doesn't work. I am not able to access the WSDL when using SOAPUI to test. Could you please let me know how to make it work in ServiceMix – Laroy

Claus ... I know you are brilliant because you invented Camel. But can we see some actual code? I've been searching for an actual example of routing to/from a jax-ws endpoint but cannot find one. You being the primary creator of Camel would be the BEST person to give an example (or even a link, something?). I will remove my downvote of this answer if you post an example. Cheers. – Tb
