This is a default/convenience. The way it's supposed to happen is that the endpoints agree (via the contract definition) where in the body specific contents go (what names, for example). add(Object o) // <-- no parameter, is just for lazy developers ;-) > > The thing I don't really understand is why getByteArray does not stream > all the objects into the ByteArray?

It's not meant to be the entire contents of the message, just a byte array for anything that wasn't an Object, e.g., a stream in for bytes, get a stream out of bytes. But not mutually exclusive to the named objects, attachments etc. What you're after would probably be: getBodyAsByteArray Mark. > > public BodyImpl() > { > _content = null; > _objects = new Hashtable<String, Object>(); > } > > Thx, > > --Kurt > > > > _______________________________________________ > esb-dev mailing list > esb-dev(a)lists.jboss.org <mailto:esb-dev@lists.jboss.org> > https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/esb-dev ---- Mark Little mlittle(a)redhat.com <mailto:mlittle@redhat.com> JBoss, a Division of Red Hat Registered Address: Red Hat UK Ltd, Amberley Place, 107-111 Peascod Street, Windsor, Berkshire, SI4 1TE, United Kingdom.
