Question

I am using simple in camel for scripting languages. I just need to set the body to null.

I try this:

from("direct:start").setBody().simple("null");

and it sets the body to the literal string “null”.

If I do this:

from("direct:start").setBody().simple("${header.null}");

It works but seems a bit clunky. Is there a simple way to say null?

Answer 1

Call setBody directly:

from("direct:start").setBody(constant(null));
