Using activiti-camel without spring dependencies

[himani]

Hi,

We have a restriction in our project to not use any spring specific Jars. We want to use camel routes to exchange data between our application and activiti.
In order to use Camel task one has to use one of CamelBehaviour API implementation which has spring dependency. Is there any way we can use the activiti-camel module without using any spring related dependencies. We are doing all out configurations programmatically.

Thanks

Hmm, the dependency seems pretty hard if I look at the code.

I'm afraid you'll have to write your own ActivityBehaviour and let you inspire by the CamelBehavior class.

That looks like a valid arguement to me. But then the changes will not be backward compatible.
maybe we can remove sprint dependeny our of camel module, and only use it if activiti-spring is included.

What do you think Joram ?

Not sure about that one - Tijs is our resident Camel expert.
I have forwarded this topic to him.

Removing spring dependency would be great help. We ended up creating our own camel routes outside of activiti framework.
It solved our purpose, but it would be good to have the provision to use the built-in feature camel of activiti as well.

I will give it a try
