Hi

Yes I thought also at first it was a dataformat ;) But how James created =
it it works as if it is a dataformat. You just have to do it in to..from =
from..to steps.


from("file://c:/test").to("flatpack:foo: =
locationOftheXMLConfigurationfile.pzmap.xml");

from("flatpack:foo").to("whatever you want");

As a component it gets more attention, as people can find it on the =
component list. The dataformats are kinda hidden in the wiki =
documentation.
Maybe they need a "dataformat" top menu as well ;)

Many thanks.

I will test the integration of this component within Camel.

Remark : I'm a little confused about how Flatpack has been integrated. =
The
project has been integrated like a component but from my point of view, =
it
should be integrated (for consistency reason) like a Dataformat. Because
like the other framework/technology implemented in Camel (JAXB, Artix,
XStream, ....), they transform the content from a format (XML, CSV, ...)
into another format (Collection of Java objects)

E.g.

DataFormat flatpack =3D new
DataFormat("locationOftheXMLConfigurationfile.pzmap.xml.xml")

from("file:///c:/test")
.unmarshall(flatpack)
.to("whatever you want")

Regards,

Charles
