Method Detail

route

MuleMessage route(MuleMessage message,
                  MuleSession session)
                  throws MessagingException

This method is responsible for routing the Message via the MuleSession. The logic for this method will change for each type of router depending on expected behaviour. For example, a MulticastingRouter might just iterate through the list of assoaciated endpoints sending the message. Another type of router such as the ExceptionBasedRouter will hit the first endpoint, if it fails try the second, and so on. Most router implementations will extends the FilteringOutboundRouter which implements all the common logic need for a router.

Parameters:

message - the message to send via one or more endpoints on this router

session - the session used to actually send the event

Returns:

a result message if any from the invocation. If the synchronous flag is false a null result will always be returned.

Throws:

MessagingException - if any errors occur during the sending of messages

Since:

2.1 the synchronous argument has been removed. Instead use the synchronous attribute of the endpoint you are dispatching to.
