How do I configure the thread names created by Camel (version 2.8.1)? I need to have more concise thread names for logging purposes.

The Camel documentation states that the default is:

Camel (#camelId#) thread ##counter# - #name#

Which results in names like:

Camel (bundle_camel) thread #114 - JmsConsumer[SomeClassNameHere]

But I want just:

#camelId#-#counter#

which would give me something like:

bundle_camel-114

The documentation says how to change the thread name pattern by calling a manager method, but we only ever interact with Camel via the Spring DSL config files.

    Yeah you would need to define a <bean> with the executor service strategy and set its pattern. Though I think we should allow to configure a naming pattern as an attribute on <camelContext> which you can do for JMX naming. I will log a ticket to get this enhanced in Camel (though ASF JIRA is currently in maintenance mode)

    See some details at http://camel.apache.org/advanced-configuration-of-camelcontext-using-spring.html and http://camel.apache.org/threading-model.html
