Hello again
Well, the typical services I use in CAMEL routes would be:
* HTTP service. Indeed, Glassfish does that one.
* For camel-cxf, I need a CXF bus. AFAIK, Glassfish does not expose
any CXF bus on the OSGi platform does it?
* Similarly, I prefer to have OSGi services for things like the
transaction manager or JDBC datasources (without having to rely on
JNDI).
Do you know if the latter two can be made available in Glassfish?
Cheers
