What are the dependencies?
Camel depends on Java 5. If you wish to use Camel on older JVMs then we recommend installing the RetroTranslator JIT or Agent to convert Java 5 bytecode to 1.42.6 or older can run on JDK 1.5 or better.
Camel 2.7 onwards requires JDK 1.6 or JDK 1.7.
Camel 2.14 onwards requires JDK 1.7 or better.
Camel 2.18 onwards requires JDK 1.8.
What are the runtime jar dependencies?
Apache Camel is designed to require a minimum number of dependencies for us so it is ideal for embedding into smart clients, message brokers, SOA frameworks and ESBs.

Other modules require other dependencies; such as camel-jms requires a JMS provider. To see the exact dependencies of the other modules see the Maven reports
