dynamic change endpoint camel

Question

Is it possible to change from endpoint in dynamic way ? for example I want change

for(endpointFirst).routeId(ROUTEID).to(finishEndpoint);

to

for(endpointSecond).routeId(ROUTEID).to(finishEndpoint);

I try use

camelContext.stopRoute(TestRoute.ROUTEID);

change old endpoint to new endpoint

camelContext.startRoute(TestRoute.ROUTEID);

but my efforts not work properly.

thanks for any help

Answer 1

You would need to

1. stop the route
2. remove the route
3. change the endpoint
4. add the route
5. start the route

This allows you to change the from endpoint to whatever you want (for example something else)

Some components / endpoint do allow to change options an have those being updated at runtime. For example the JMS endpoint allows this, so you can

1. stop the route
2. change an option on the jms endpoint
3. start the route

But there may be some components which cannot do that.
