Hi, I am trying to process a large file (900MB). I need to send it to a HTTP remote location: B. But before I send it to B, I need to post some metadata to HTTP location A.
Because I do not want the content of the file to be sent to A, I move the file from the body to a header named XomBody. Unfortunately, when posting to A, the Camel HTTP producer converts all headers to string. Which causes the 900MB file to result into OutOfmemoryError. How can I prevent this? I was hoping that by using a header filtering strategy to exclude all headers with name starting with Xom, this would resolve my problem. This does not seem to be the case. Looking at the HttpProducer, it appears that the filtering strategy is applied after type conversion. So, in general: Should the type conversion be applied only when all tests are done and the header is really a candidate for transfer? In my specific case: what is the recommended way to do what I am trying to do? Thanks, Max.
