Processor (Camel :: API 3.18.2 API)

All Known Subinterfaces:

AsyncProcessor, AsyncProducer, Channel, DelegateProcessor, ErrorHandler, InternalProcessor, ManagementInterceptStrategy.InstrumentationProcessor<T>, Producer, SharedInternalProcessor

Functional Interface:

This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.
```
@FunctionalInterface
public interface Processor
```
A processor is used to implement the Event Driven Consumer and Message Translator patterns and to process message exchanges.
Notice if you use a Processor in a Camel route, then make sure to write the Processor in a thread-safe way, as the Camel routes can potentially be executed by concurrent threads, and therefore multiple threads can call the same Processor instance.
