null

Camel 2.17: To configure additional options on the create bean instance from the class name. For example to configure a foo option on the bean, use bean.foo=123.

You can append query options to the URI in the following format, ?option=value&option=value&...

Using

You simply use the class component just as the Bean component but by specifying the fully qualified classname instead.
For example to use the MyFooBean you have to do as follows:

Code Block
}}

h3. Using

You simply use the *class* component just as the [Bean] component but by specifying the fully qualified classname instead.
For example to use the {{MyFooBean}} you have to do as follows:
{code}
    from("direct:start").to("class:org.apache.camel.component.bean.MyFooBean").to("mock:result");
{code}

You

...

can

...

also

...

specify

...

which

...

method

...

to

...

invoke

...

on

...

the

...

MyFooBean

...

,

...

for

...

example

...

hello

...

:

{
Code Block
}
    from("direct:start").to("class:org.apache.camel.component.bean.MyFooBean?method=hello").to("mock:result");

Setting properties on the created instance

In the endpoint uri you can specify properties to set on the created instance, for example if it has a setPrefix method:

Code Block
   // Camel 2.17 onwards
   {code}

h2. Setting properties on the created instance

In the endpoint uri you can specify properties to set on the created instance, for example if it has a {{setPrefix}} method:
{code}
    from("direct:start")
        .to("class:org.apache.camel.component.bean.MyPrefixBean?bean.prefix=Bye")
        .to("mock:result");
{code}

And you can also use the {{#}} syntax to refer to properties to be looked up in the [Registry].
{code}
 
   // Camel 2.16 and older 
   from("direct:start")
        .to("class:org.apache.camel.component.bean.MyPrefixBean?prefix=Bye")
        .to("mock:result");

And you can also use the # syntax to refer to properties to be looked up in the Registry.

Code Block
    // Camel 2.17 onwards
    from("direct:start")
        .to("class:org.apache.camel.component.bean.MyPrefixBean?bean.cool=#foo")
        .to("mock:result");
{code}
Which will lookup a bean from the [Registry] with the id {{foo}} and invoke the {{setCool}} method on the created instance of the {{MyPrefixBean}} class.
