  • Element Details

    • value

      String value
      The XPath which will be applied
    • namespaces

      org.apache.camel.support.language.NamespacePrefix[] namespaces
      Namespace prefix mappings
      Default:
      {@org.apache.camel.support.language.NamespacePrefix(prefix="soap", uri="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope"), @org.apache.camel.support.language.NamespacePrefix(prefix="xsd", uri="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema")}
    • resultType

      Class<?> resultType
      The desired return type from the evaluated XPath expression.
      Default:
      java.lang.Object.class
    • source

      String source
      Source to use, instead of message body. You can prefix with variable:, header:, or property: to specify kind of source. Otherwise, the source is assumed to be a variable. Use empty or null to use default source, which is the message body.
      Default:
      ""
    • logNamespaces

      boolean logNamespaces
      Whether to log namespaces which can assist during troubleshooting
      Default:
      false
    • preCompile

      boolean preCompile
      Whether to enable pre-compiling the xpath expression during initialization phase. pre-compile is enabled by default. This can be used to turn off, for example in cases the compilation phase is desired at the starting phase, such as if the application is ahead of time compiled (for example with camel-quarkus) which would then load the xpath factory of the built operating system, and not a JVM runtime.
      Default:
      true
