Madhav Bhargava commented on CAMEL-3564: ---------------------------------------- There is another problem. If you check DefaultCxfBinding class there is a method: propagateHeadersFromCamelToCxf which would propagate the headers from camel to CXF. The transport headers have been defined as: Map<String, List<String>> transportHeaders = new HashMap<String, List<String>>(); Now when you allow people to set an Object as a value against a key as header then you will have to change this to Map<String, Object>. I tried to set a Map object against the key and it converted the value to the default string representation of the Map which is not what is desired.
