Method Detail

setNextProcessor

void setNextProcessor(Processor next)

Sets the processor that the channel should route the Exchange to.

Parameters:

next - the next processor

setErrorHandler

void setErrorHandler(Processor errorHandler)

Sets the ErrorHandler this Channel uses.

Parameters:

errorHandler - the error handler

getErrorHandler

Processor getErrorHandler()

Gets the ErrorHandler this Channel uses.

Returns:

the error handler, or null if no error handler is used.

addInterceptStrategy

void addInterceptStrategy(InterceptStrategy strategy)

Adds a InterceptStrategy to apply each Exchange before its routed to the next Processor.

Parameters:

strategy - the intercept strategy

addInterceptStrategies

void addInterceptStrategies(List<InterceptStrategy> strategy)

Adds a list of InterceptStrategy to apply each Exchange before its routed to the next Processor.

Parameters:

strategy - list of strategies

getInterceptStrategies

List<InterceptStrategy> getInterceptStrategies()

Gets the list of InterceptStrategy registered to this Channel.

Returns:

list of strategies, returns an empty list if no strategies is registered.

getOutput

Processor getOutput()

Gets the wrapped output that at runtime should be delegated to.

Returns:

the output to route the Exchange to

setOutput

void setOutput(Processor output)

Sets the wrapped output that at runtime should be delegated to.

Parameters:

output - the output to route the Exchange to

getNextProcessor

Processor getNextProcessor()

Gets the next Processor to route to (not wrapped)

Returns:

the next processor

getRouteContext

RouteContext getRouteContext()

Gets the RouteContext

Returns:

the route context
