Since we're on a major migration process of this website, some component documents here are out of sync right now. In the meantime you may want to look at the asciidoc in the repository: https://github.com/apache/camel/blob/master/README.md https://github.com/apache/camel/blob/master/components/readme.adoc

Constant Expression Language

The Constant Expression Language is really just a way to specify constant strings as a type of expression.

Example usage

The setHeader element of the Spring DSL can utilize a constant expression like:

<route>
  <from uri="seda:a"/>
  <setHeader headerName="theHeader">
    <constant>the value</constant>        
  </setHeader>
  <to uri="mock:b"/>     
</route>

In this case, the Message coming from the seda:a Endpoint will have theHeader header set to the constant value the value.

And the same example using Java DSL:

from("seda:a")
  .setHeader("theHeader", constant("the value"))
  .to("mock:b");

Dependencies

The Constant language is part of camel-core.
