Endpoints

Camel supports the Message Endpoint pattern using the Endpoint interface.

Endpoints are usually created by a Component and Endpoints are usually referred to in the DSL via their URIs.

From an Endpoint you can use the following methods:

createProducer() will create a Producer for sending message exchanges to the endpoint.
createConsumer() implements the Event Driven Consumer pattern for consuming message exchanges from the endpoint via a Processor when creating a Consumer.
createPollingConsumer() implements the Polling Consumer pattern for consuming message exchanges from the endpoint via a PollingConsumer.
