Just for more information, if I had an MBean with an operation such as:

     @ManagedOperation
     public synchronized String doStuff(String theParam) {
              //What goes here?
        }

And this would need to spawn an existing route such as:

       <osgi:camelContext id="context1" xmlns=...>

              <route id="route1">
                   <from uri="direct:theStart">
                   ....do stuff with the String parameter, header, etc...
              </route> 
      </osgi:camelContext>

I just don't currently understand how I can feed a value form the bean to the route, as well as start the route.  I am guessing it is more obvious if I use a java routebuilder, but I am still hoping for some assistance in getting started.
