Apache Camel：从Bean消费

Question

I have a question about how to invoke a bean as an uri like this:

from("bean:MyBeanCall?method=beancallMethod(String1)")

The Consumer has to be dynamic and returns the URI as a String from the bean. Inside the bean I want also use the @Header Annotation to add some Header properties.

The working bean call looks like this:

.bean(MyBeanCall.class,"beancall('String1')");

The bean looks like this:

public static void beancall(String test, @Header("theHeader") String header, @Header("JMSCorrelationID") String correlationID){...}

But I need the call inside the from() to generate the consumer with the String1 and the Headers.

From the documentation http://camel.apache.org/bean.html

A bean: endpoint cannot be defined as the input to the route; ie you cannot consume from it, you can only route from some inbound message Endpoint to the bean endpoint as output. So consider using a direct: or queue: endpoint as the input.

Depending on your requirements, you can use a timer, a scheduleRoutingPolicy, a SimpleScheduleRoutingPolicy or a CronScheduleRoutingPolicy to trigger the route.
