StAX Component
Available as of Camel 2.9
The StAX component allows messages to be process through a SAX ContentHandler.
The implementation convert a SAX ContentHanler to a XMLStreamReader.
Another great feature of this component is to allow to iterate over JAXB records using StAX, for example using the Splitter EIP.
Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml
for this component:
...
Code Block |
---|
stax:org.superbiz.FooContentHandler |
Converter
Some converters are provided by the component.
...
From Camel 2.11.1 onwards you can lookup a org.xml.sax.ContentHandler
bean from the Registry using the # syntax as shown:
Code Block |

stax:#myHandler

Usage of a content handler as StAX parser
...
Code Block | ||||

from("file:target/in") .to("StAXstax:org.superbiz.handler.CountingHandler") // CountingHandler implements org.xml.sax.ContentHandler or extends org.xml.sax.helpers.DefaultHandler .process(new Processor() { @Override public void process(Exchange exchange) throws Exception { CountingHandler handler = exchange.getIn().getBody(CountingHandler.class); // do some great work with the handler } }); |
...
The StAX component provides an iterator call org.apache.camel.stax.StAXJAXBIteratorExpression which allows you
to iterate through this collection with the camel splitter: StAXBuilder
which can be used when iterating XML elements with the Camel Splitter
Code Block | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|

from("file:target/in") .setBodysplit(headerstax(Exchange.FILE_PATH)Record.class)).streaming() .split(new StAXJAXBIteratorExpression<Record>to("mock:records"); |
Where stax
is a static method on org.apache.camel.component.stax.StAXBuilder
which you can static import in the Java code. The stax builder is by default namespace aware on the XMLReader it uses. From Camel 2.11.1 onwards you can turn this off by setting the boolean parameter to false, as shown below:
Code Block | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|

from("file:target/in") .split(stax(Record.class, false)).streaming() .to("mock:records"); |
