The javaspace component is a transport for working with any JavaSpace compliant implementation and this component has been tested with both the Blitz implementation and the GigaSpace implementation .
This component can be used for sending and receiving any object inheriting from the Jini net.jini.core.entry.Entry
class. It is also possible to pass the bean ID of a template that can be used for reading/taking the entries from the space.
This component can be used for sending/receiving any serializable object acting as a sort of generic transport. The JavaSpace component contains a special optimization for dealing with the BeanExchange
. It can be used to invoke a POJO remotely, using a JavaSpace as a transport.
This latter feature can provide a simple implementation of the master/worker pattern, where a POJO provides the business logic for the worker.
Look at the test cases for examples of various use cases for this component.
Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml
for this component:
Code Block | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
<artifactId>camel-javaspace</artifactId>
<version>x.x.x</version>
<!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
</dependency>

URI format
Code Block |
---|
javaspace:jini://host[?options] |
You can append query options to the URI in the following format, ?option=value&option=value&...

Examples
Sending and Receiving Entries
No Formatcode |
---|
//Sending sending route from("direct:input") .to("javaspace:jini://localhost?spaceName=mySpace"); //Receiving receiving Route from("javaspace:jini://localhost?spaceName=mySpace&templateId=template&verb=take&concurrentConsumers=1") .to("mock:foo"); |
In this case the payload can be any object that inherits from the Jini Entry
type.

The JavaSpace component has been tailored to work in combination with the Camel bean component. It is therefore possible to call a remote POJO using JavaSpace as the transport:
No Formatcode |
---|
// client side from("direct:input") .to("javaspace:jini://localhost?spaceName=mySpace"); //Client server side from("javaspace:jini://localhost?concurrentConsumers=10&spaceName=mySpace") .to("pojomock:pojofoo"); //Server side |
In the code there are two test cases showing how to use a POJO to realize the master/worker pattern. The idea is to use the POJO to provide the business logic and rely on Camel for sending/receiving requests/replies with the proper correlation.
