Code Block
java
java

from("activemq:queue:order.in").to("bean:orderServer?method=validate").to("direct:processOrder");

from("direct:processOrder").to("bean:orderService?method=process").to("activemq:queue:order.out");

And the sample using spring DSL:

Code Block

xml

   <route>
     <from uri="activemq:queue:order.in"/>
     <to uri="bean:orderServer?method=validate"/>
     <to uri="direct:processOrder"/>
  </route>

  <route>
     <from uri="direct:processOrder"/>
     <to uri="bean:orderServer?method=process"/>
     <to uri="activemq:queue:order.out"/>
  </route>
