In Camel 1.5 the following algorithm is used to determine if either GET or POST HTTP method should be used:
1. Use method provided in header.
2. GET if query string is provided in header.
3. GET if endpoint is configured with a query string.
4. POST if there is data to send (body is not null).
5. GET otherwise.

How to get access to HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse

Available as of Camel 2.0

You can get access to these two using the Camel type converter system using

HttpServletRequest request = exchange.getIn().getBody(HttpServletRequest.class);
HttpServletRequest response = exchange.getIn().getBody(HttpServletResponse.class);

Or you can get access to them from HttpMessage directly using a type cast:

HttpMessage msg = (HttpMessage) exchange.getIn();
HttpServletRequest request = msg.getRequest();
HttpServletRequest response = msg.getResponse();

Configuring URI to call

You can set the HTTP producer's URI directly form the endpoint URI. In the route below, Camel will call out to the external server, oldhost, using HTTP.
