We use a HttpProducer (http4) which receives a URL via the "CamelHttpUri" header, and fetches the data from that URL. The http4 endpoint configuration does not contain any URL at all, because this is all determined based on dynamic message content.
Problem is that I initially expected that the query part of the URL would be taken into account, but the HTTP producer IGNORES the query parameter segment when the "CamelHttpQuery" header is not set. It seems to fallback to the query part of the endpoint, but that does not work for us since it's empty. So, setting URL directly on endpoint should respect the query part, but only setting it via the header, does NOT use the query part. I did not expect this behavior, and find it a little confusing. Wouldn't it be better to include the query part in BOTH cases? For the moment, I implemented a workaround by setting the CamelHttpQuery header as well, but this feels like a small hack. http://camel.apache.org/http4.html Using camel 2.5, but code seems to be unchanged in latest trunk, see line 331 in HttpProducer.createMethod() : https://github.com/apache/camel/blob/trunk/components/camel-http4/src/main/java/org/apache/camel/component/http4/HttpProducer.java#L331 Regards, Tung
