Camel 2.0 Design

This wiki page lists the overall goals of the 2.0 release of Camel. For a detailed view see the Camel 2.0 JIRA roadmap

Main features

default to using transacted mode along with transacted error handlers CAMEL-866
improve smart completion of Java & XML DSLs
make more endpoints easily configurable as beans in Spring XML CAMEL-506
improve the DSL
- to better support polling and explicit MEPs CAMEL-402 CAMEL-486
- a new schedule DSL for advanced scheduling of polling that can have builder methods (kinda like BAM) so you can:
```
schedule().every(5).minute().from("ftp://xxxx).to("bean:processFtpFile")...
```
- get rid of consumer. options in favor of the new scheduler
solving MEP issues
using Camel${component}${name} pattern as header keys instead of using package names with dots that isn't likely to be transported by JMS or other transport types
OSGi sample and wiki documentation
ServiceMix and Camel sample and wiki documentation

remove the use of generics on Component, Exchange, Producer, Consumer to reduce the need to copy exchanges CAMEL-872 CAMEL-507
enhance the Expression/Predicate APIs to allow the required type to be passed in
remove @deprecated code
improvement of discovery of class resources in OSGi bundles CAMEL-775
cleanup Pipeline, BeanInfo (the algorithm to select right method to invoke by bean component)
UUID generator to be file friendly (eg zapping / and : chars)

have nice Spring 2 namespace schemas for different endpoints for nicer IDE completion
Improved JMX
- Dynamic routing using JMX
- Pausing consumers using JMX
- Customization of endpoint options using JMX
- and a lot more
pluggable DSL (Hadrian)
