Chapter 6. The Source View
The tooling's Source tab opens the route editor in Source view (Figure 6.1) to display the contents of an Apache Camel route file as XML.
Figure 6.1. Source view
This view is useful for editing and adding any configuration, comments, or beans to the routing context file. The Properties editor can inspect the beans and use the information to populate the fields that require bean references.
While the route editor allows you to change the contents of the
camelContext element in the routing context file, not all changes are preserved. Comments inserted into the camelContext element are lost upon switching to Design view.
