L.S.,
ServiceMix itself doesn't have a plain TCP/IP binding component, but you
can use servicemix-camel to deploy a Camel route that uses the Camel
MINA component (http://activemq.apache.org/camel/mina.html) to handle
this. For invoking the webservice, you can use the servicemix-http
component. IIRC, servicemix-camel uses synchronous communication to
interact with other services on the ESB by default, so you shouldn't
have to a lot there.
Does this help?

Hello,
I am evaluating ServiceMix 3.2.1 to be used as ESB solution for integrating
different healthcare applications.
I have spent some time to play with provided examples and as for now
everything looks very promising.
Now I try to implement simple real scenario.
Application A should communicate with Application B
Appl. A uses TCP/IP protocol to send requests in XML format and receive
responds in XML format as well.
Each request is a XML message with prefix and suffix.
Request from appl. A should be translated to SOAP message in order to invoke
WebService of Appl. B
Appl. B should respond on request sending XML message back to appl. A
So, communication is synchronous and looks like the following:
TCP <-> XSLT <-> WS
The questions are:
1. What BC should be used for working with TCP protocol?
2. What BC should be used to invoke WebService?
3. How to make communication synchronous? All provided examples seem to be
asynchronous.
Thank you.
