Hi,
Yes , you assumption is correct.
If you want to directly talk to camel context in the same JVM, you could
choice direct, seda component. But if you want to do that across the
JVMs, you have to other components :)

Thank you for the reply.
Your assumptions are all correct. Basically, I have several applications
that need to interact with the Camel application, and I was thinking to have
camel route messages directly to them and have these applications drop
messages into the camel context directly. But with you response, and my own
research so far, looks like these applications won't be able to talk to
camel directly. I'll have to define service endpoints within the camel
application in order to interact with the other applications. - Is this
correct assumption?

Hi,
Can I know why you need to access the CamelContext from different JVM ?
Camel has lots of components can help your application talk across the
JVM, such as camel-jms , camel-mina, camel-cxf, camel-http etc.
If you just want to access the endpoint of upper components from
different JVM, that is doable.
But, if you just want to access the CamelContext, read the routes rule,
or do some manage things , you may need to consider the JMX or the camel
web console.
After rereading your questions , I think you just want to access the
service which is exported by camel. If you want to use ,net client to
talk with the service, I suggest you use the camel-cxf component[1]
which leverage the CXF[2] to implements a WebServices stack, and we did
some inter-operation tests between the CXF and .net years ago, they look
great.

find the answer yet so I decide to post a message of my own to seek for
helps :)
What I see so far is all running Camel in a single application where the
CamelContext can be retrieved easily with many different ways. My
questions
are:
1. How do I access an existing CamelContext at server from a client
application that is running in a different JVM / machine? Or is it
doable?
2. How to interact with Camel from applications that is developed using
other languages, such as .NET?
Basically, what I want to figure out is, after creating a server that
uses
Camel, what's the best way to participant in this message bus from
applications that are distributed in different machines?
Thanks,
Alan
