025/**
026 * An Exchange is the message container holding the information during the entire routing of
027 * a {@link  Message} received by a {@link Consumer}. 
028 * <p/>
029 * During processing down the {@link Processor} chain, the {@link Exchange} provides access to the 
030 * current (not the original) request and response {@link Message} messages. The {@link Exchange} 
031 * also holds meta-data during its entire lifetime stored as properties accessible using the 
032 * various {@link #getProperty(String)} methods. The {@link #setProperty(String, Object)} is 
033 * used to store a property. For example you can use this to store security, SLA related 
034 * data or any other information deemed useful throughout processing. If an {@link Exchange} 
035 * failed during routing the {@link Exception} that caused the failure is stored and accessible 
036 * via the {@link #getException()} method.
037 * <p/>
038 * An Exchange is created when a {@link Consumer} receives a request. A new {@link Message} is
039 * created, the request is set as the body of the {@link Message} and depending on the {@link Consumer}
040 * other {@link Endpoint} and protocol related information is added as headers on the {@link Message}.
041 * Then an Exchange is created and the newly created {@link Message} is set as the in on the Exchange.
042 * Therefore an Exchange starts its life in a {@link Consumer}. The Exchange is then sent down the
043 * {@link Route} for processing along a {@link Processor} chain. The {@link Processor} as the name
044 * suggests is what processes the {@link Message} in the Exchange and Camel, in addition to 
045 * providing out-of-the-box a large number of useful processors, it also allows you to create your own. 
046 * The rule Camel uses is to take the out {@link Message} produced by the previous {@link Processor} 
047 * and set it as the in for the next {@link Processor}. If the previous {@link Processor} did not
048 * produce an out, then the in of the previous {@link Processor} is sent as the next in. At the
049 * end of the processing chain, depending on the {@link ExchangePattern Message Exchange Pattern} (or MEP)
050 * the last out (or in of no out available) is sent by the {@link Consumer} back to the original caller.
051 * <p/>
052 * Camel, in addition to providing out-of-the-box a large number of useful processors, it also allows 
053 * you to implement and use your own. When the Exchange is passed to a {@link Processor}, it always 
054 * contains an in {@link Message} and no out {@link Message}. The {@link Processor} <b>may</b> produce 
055 * an out, depending on the nature of the {@link Processor}. The in {@link Message} can be accessed 
056 * using the {@link #getIn()} method. Since the out message is null when entering the {@link Processor}, 
057 * the {@link #getOut()} method is actually a convenient factory method that will lazily instantiate a 
058 * {@link org.apache.camel.impl.DefaultMessage} which you could populate. As an alternative you could 
059 * also instantiate your specialized  {@link Message} and set it on the exchange using the 
060 * {@link #setOut(org.apache.camel.Message)} method. Please note that a {@link Message} contains not only 
061 * the body but also headers and attachments. If you are creating a new {@link Message} the headers and 
062 * attachments of the in {@link Message} are not automatically copied to the out by Camel and you'll have 
063 * to set the headers and attachments you need yourself. If your {@link Processor} is not producing a 
064 * different {@link Message} but only needs to slightly  modify the in, you can simply update the in 
065 * {@link Message} returned by {@link #getIn()}. 
066 * <p/>
067 * See this <a href="http://camel.apache.org/using-getin-or-getout-methods-on-exchange.html">FAQ entry</a> 
068 * for more details.
