Gert, I think I've understood consumer/producer lingo, but ... I would like to test the cxfbc:provider by sending an HTTP (or JMS) request to the ESB.
That's why I've created a consumer http:endpoint that receives the HTTP request and forwards it - via a RouteBuilder - to the cxfbc:provider which forwards the HTTP request to the external webservice. Is this the correct way to test the cxfbc:provider or is there another (better) way of achieving this ? Regards, Stefan.
