In my preparation step, I was doing this as the last bit in my processor prior 
to invoking the client:

inMessage.setBody(status, String.class);

I also tried inserting an explicit conversion into the blueprint right before 
the client invocation:

<convertBodyTo class=”java.lang.String”/>

Neither approach worked. I still got the CxfRsProducer throwing a 
NoSuchMethodException.

Not sure if this is an option, but can you insert a call to a bean (or 
processor) before the CXF call that does the body conversion the way you want?
