Apache Camel dynamic endpoints

Question

I'm starting to learn Apache Camel and faced with the problem.

I need to read XML file from file system, parse it and transfer some file specified in this XML to another location.

---

This is example of XML located in "C:/Users/JuISe/Desktop/jms".

<file>
    <from>C:/Users/JuISe/Desktop/from</from>
    <to>C:/Users/JuISe/Desktop/to</to>
</file>

It means transfer all files from "C:/Users/JuISe/Desktop/from" directory to "C:/Users/JuISe/Desktop/to"

Here is my code:

public class FileShifter {
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        CamelContext context = new DefaultCamelContext();
        try {
            context.addRoutes(new MyRouteBuilder());
            context.start();
            Thread.sleep(10000);
            context.stop();
        }catch (Exception ex) {
            ex.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

class MyRouteBuilder extends RouteBuilder {
    private String from;
    private String to;
    public void configure(){
        from("file:C:/Users/JuISe/Desktop/jms?noop=true")
                .setHeader("from", xpath("file/from/text()").stringResult())
                .setHeader("to", xpath("file/to/text()").stringResult())
                .process(new Processor() {
                    @Override
                    public void process(Exchange exchange) throws Exception {
                        from = exchange.getIn().getHeader("from").toString();
                        to = exchange.getIn().getHeader("to").toString();
                    }
                })
                .pollEnrich("file:" + from)
                .to("file:" + to);
    }
}

It doesn't works. Here is logs:

Thanks for a help!

Try using a bean with producer and consumer template , file end points directory cannot be dynamic

from("file:/Users/smunirat/apps/destination/jms?noop=true")
            .setHeader("from", xpath("file/from/text()").stringResult())
            .setHeader("to", xpath("file/to/text()").stringResult())
            .process(new Processor() {
                @Override
                public void process(Exchange exchange) throws Exception {
                    from = exchange.getIn().getHeader("from").toString();
                    to = exchange.getIn().getHeader("to").toString();

                    exchange.getOut().setHeader("from", from);
                    exchange.getOut().setHeader("to", to);

                }
            })

            .to("log:Sundar?showAll=true&multiline=true")
            .process(new Processor() {
                @Override
                public void process(Exchange exchange) throws Exception {
                    ConsumerTemplate createConsumerTemplate = exchange.getContext().createConsumerTemplate();
                    ProducerTemplate createProducerTemplate = exchange.getContext().createProducerTemplate();
                    Exchange receive = createConsumerTemplate.receive("file://"+exchange.getIn().getHeader("from"));
                    createProducerTemplate.sendBody("file://"+exchange.getIn().getHeader("to"),receive.getIn().getMandatoryBody());

                }
            })
            .log("Message");

This might require a little tweaking to change the file name and delete the original file from the from location
