The FIX component supports the FIX protocol by using the QuickFix/J library.

fix://configurationResource

Where configurationResource points to the QuickFix/J configuration file to define how to connect to FIX. This could be a resource on the classpath or refer to a full URL using http: or file: schemes.

By default this component will attempt to use the Type Converter to turn the inbound message body into a QuickFix Message class and all outputs from FIX will be in the same format.

If you are using the Artix Data Services support then any payload such as files or streams or byte arrays can be converted nicely into FIX messages.

To use this module you need to use the FUSE Mediation Router distribution. Or you could just add the following to your pom.xml, substituting the version number for the latest & greatest release.

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
  <artifactId>camel-parent</artifactId>
  <version>1.5.3.0-fuse</version>
</dependency>
