Claus Ibsen commented on CAMEL-3564:
------------------------------------

Madhav i dont see the point.

We are talking about a Camel expression to refer an object, which you lookup 
using an id, and find it in a registry such as the Spring XML file (its app 
context).

Then someone asked if you can use this <ref> expression with the <seetHeader>. 
Yes you can as shown:
{code}
<setHeader headerName="myFoo">
<simple>${ref:foo}</simple>
</setHeader>
{code}

What you refer to is some internals of camel-cxf which seems to store some 
transports headers in a map structure. 
That map structure is not the Camel Headers Map structure. Those 2 are not 
related.

> This is needed for folks using XML routing. An expression which can refer to 
> something from the registry.
> We can also add a {{ref}} function to the simple language so you can use that 
> as well.
> In simple the function should be {{ref:id}} where id is the id to lookup.
> For example
> {code:xml}
> <bean id="foo" class=...>
>    <!-- options -->
> </bean>
> <setProperty name="myFoo">
> <ref id="foo"/>
> </setProperty>
> {code}
> And when using simple
> {code:xml}
> <setProperty name="myFoo">
> <simple>${ref:foo}</simple>
> </setProperty>
> {code}
