Camel 2.0.0 Released


News Item
added by
Hadrian Zbarcea

The Camel riders are pleased to introduce the Apache Camel 2.0.0 Release. This is a major overhaul of Camel that took more than a year of ... [More] efforts and is coming with about 760 issues resolved. We are grateful to the entire community for its involvement. Your hard work and constant attention to details promoted Apache Camel to wider adoption and leadership position in the integration space.

The feature and improvements list is too large to fit here, so please check out the release notes. Note that along with many improvements came a few api changes and migration from the 1.x line, while not too complicated, is not straightforward. The old Camel 1.x branch will still be supported for a while although the upgrade to this hot release is strongly encouraged.

Many thanks to all the contributors who made this release possible. Download Camel now and enjoy the ride!

We are pleased to introduce the Apache Camel 2.0-M2 release with approx 222 issues resolved. This will probably be ... [More] the last milestone release and the the final 2.0 will follow soon. The api changed from the 1.x version, but is now stable and we don't anticipate any changes in the upcoming 2.0.

Among the new features, improvements and bug fixes in this release (from the 1.x version):

Introduced type converter registry to allow end users to programmatic get access to this registry
major improvements and refactoring of most components (see release notes)
RedeliveryPolicy added support for ref attribute to reference a existing policy in the Registry
Dead Letter Channel and Exception Clause now have onRedeliver to allow custom processing an Exchange before its being redelivered. Allowing you to work on the message being sent.
Multiple inputs can be define as input to routes: from("activemq:queue:order", "file://order").to("bean:handleOrder");
Pluggable Class Resolvers SPI for class resolvers allowing third party platforms such as JBoss to provide integration with Camel.
Refined API to reduce package tangling.
Added fromF and toF in the Java DSL to build uri strings using String.format with arguments, e.g.: fromF("ftp://%s@myserver?password=%s", user, password)..to
Improved tooling being able to retrieve more runtime information from the CamelContext
Scala DSL is improved
Introduced ConsumerTemplate supporting the Polling Consumer EIP
Custom endpoints with Spring @ManagedResource is now also registered in the mbean server.
The default error handler is changed from Dead Letter Channel to DefaultErrorHandler.
Overhaul and improvements to the Try Catch Finally DSLs, so they are on pair with the Exception Clause.
Overhaul and improvements to the Intercept DSLs. Added new interceptSendToEndpoint to intercept sending to a given Endpoint.
Added the notion of a Channel in the routes.
Added support to navigate the routes at runtime, so you can dynamic change or affect the processors in the routes.
Introduced a new Async API for asynchronous messaging.
Added Failover as load balancer.
Added Jackson as supported library for the JSon data format.

Many thanks to everybody who contributed to this major effort.
The Camel riders.
