How Do I Import Routes From Other XML Files?
Since Camel 2.3
When defining routes in Camel using Spring XML you may want to define some routes in other XML files. For example you may have many routes and it may help to maintain the application if some of the routes are in separate XML files. You may also want to store common and reusable routes in other XML files, which you can simply import when needed.
In Camel 2.3 it is now possible to define routes outside
<camelContext/> which you do in a new <routeContext/> tag.

When you use |
For example we could have a file named myCoolRoutes.xml which
contains a couple of routes as shown:
Then in your XML file which contains the CamelContext you can use Spring to
import the myCoolRoute.xml file. And then inside <camelContext/>
you can refer to the <routeContext/> by its id as shown below:
Also notice that you can mix and match, having routes inside CamelContext
and also externalized in RouteContext.
You can have as many <routeContextRef/> as you like.
