Hi JIRA: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-17675
The Rest DSL was designed with a flaw that complicates the core DSL model in Camel, that makes things more complicated in Camel v3 with proper multiple language support for DSLs. We are working on aligning and cleanup various bits in the model. In the Rest DSL we have just removed the embedded route functionality. You can see more details in the 3.16 upgrade guide at: https://github.com/apache/camel/blob/main/docs/user-manual/modules/ROOT/pages/camel-3x-upgrade-guide-3_16.adoc#rest-dsl -- Claus Ibsen ----------------- http://davsclaus.com @davsclaus Camel in Action 2: https://www.manning.com/ibsen2
