Hello
Apache CAMEL and Glassfish work pretty well: all CAMEL bundles deploy on
Glassfish, and if you create routes that use these bundles these also
work well.
What doesn't work is an advanced configuration, where you would like
your routes to reuse existing Glassfish services (for example, having
the camel-servlet or camel-cxf bundle reuse the Glassfish HTTP server).
Some aspects of dynamism are also missing: what you can do in Glassfish
is only the BundleActivator thing, and you have to manually manage the
reuse of other OSGi services. In an OSGi framework with for example
iPOJO, you can have these dependencies injected, your Camel route
started; and in the case the dependent service stops or gets updated
your route also automatically stopped, reinjected and restarted.
