Batch Consumer

Available as of Camel 2.0

Batch Consumer is basically a Polling Consumer that is capable of polling multiple Exchanges in a pool. What we have done in Camel 2.0 is to standardize this into a org.apache.camel.BatchConsumer interface that a consumer can implement to indicate it supports batching.

The following components support the use of the Batch Consumer by their consumers:
