JSON
JSON is a Data Format which uses the XStream library and Jettsion to marshal and unmarshal Java objects to and from JSON.
// lets turn Object messages into json then send to MQSeries from("activemq:My.Queue"). marshal().json(). to("mqseries:Another.Queue");
Dependencies
To use JSON in your camel routes you need to add the a dependency on camel-xstream which implements this data format.
If you use maven you could just add the following to your pom.xml, substituting the version number for the latest & greatest release (see the download page for the latest versions).
<dependency> <groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId> <artifactId>camel-xstream</artifactId> <version>1.5.0</version> </dependency>
