I have an interface which I am using as camel proxy Using Camel Proxy. My route is as below:
from("direct:services")
.onException(Exception.class)
.process(new Processor() {
@Override
public void process(Exchange arg0) throws Exception {
Exception e = arg0.getProperty(Exchange.EXCEPTION_CAUGHT, Exception.class);
LOGGER.error(e, e.getMessage());
}
}).handled(true).end()
.setHeader(Exchange.HTTP_URI, simple("${body.url}"))
.setHeader(Exchange.HTTP_METHOD,simple("${body.httpMethod}"))
.setHeader(Exchange.CONTENT_TYPE, simple("${body.contentType}"))
.setBody(simple("${body.requestBody}"))
.choice()
.when(simple("${body.proxyRequired} == 'true'"))
.inOut("{{http.urlProxy}}")
.otherwise()
.inOut("{{http.url}}")
.end()
.setBody(bean(appUtil, "extractResponse"));
The interface is :
public interface ApiServices {
ServiceProviderResponse performOperation(ServiceProviderRequest request);
}
And the ServiceProviderResponse and ServiceProviderRequest classes :
public class ServiceProviderRequest {
private String url;
private String requestBody;
private String httpMethod;
private String contentType;
private boolean proxyRequired;
private Map<String, String> headers;
//getters and setters
}
public class ServiceProviderResponse {
private int statusCode;
private String body;
private String errorMessage;
private String contentType;
private String url;
//getters and setters
}
This is how this whole thing is working :
@Produce(uri = "direct:services")
ApiServices appServices;
ServiceProviderResponse response = appServices.performOperation(request);
Earlier my interface's method was : ServiceProviderResponse performOperation(String url);
and it worked fine(ofcourse my route was different earlier). So is it something that we cannot use custom object types like this? The exception that I get :

Exception says something about TypeConverters, do I need to implement a type converter also now ? If yes how to do it? I have already gone through Camel docs for type converter but I dont understand from it much. Also I guess most of you have understood what I want to achieve, so if you guys have any different methods to accomplish this or some suggestions, please post it.
