You use Object as the type of the method. That is too broad in the sense.

You can use one of the Camel APIs to get the Camel Message such as
public String toSql(Exchange exchange){
Then you can access the headers and body as follows
String body = exchange.getIn().getBody(String.class);
Map<String, Object> headers = exchange.getIn().getHeaders();
You may want to read chapter 3 and 4 to see how you can use beans /
processors etc with Camel.
