Using the XSDs in configuration files

When you are using Spring's 2.5 XML handling to parse the XML then you need to refer to the XSD locations in your XML document.

You can refer to a specific version of the XSD in your XML as follows

<beans 
  xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" 
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
      http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd
    http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring 
      http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring/camel-spring-2.11.0.xsd">

or if you prefer you can use a generic XSD without the version number

<beans 
  xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" 
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
      http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
    http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring
      http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring/camel-spring.xsd">

Your IDE won't be able to fetch this XSD, you'll have to manually associate a specific release; however it does mean that you won't have to upgrade your XML config file with each Camel release; as it will resolve this XSD using the bundled XSD inside the camel-spring.jar.
