name="BookPatternAppendix-UsingPOJOsasAggregationStrategy"></a>Using POJOs as 
AggregationStrategy</h3>
+<p><b>Available as of Camel 2.12</b></p>
+
+<p>To use the <tt>AggregationStrategy</tt> you had to implement the 
<tt>org.apache.camel.processor.aggregate.AggregationStrategy</tt> interface, 
which means your logic would be tied to the Camel API. From <b>Camel 2.12</b> 
onwards you can use a POJO for the logic and let Camel adapt to your POJO. To 
use a POJO a convention must be followed:</p>
+
+<ul class="alternate" type="square"><li>there must be a public method to 
use</li><li>the method must not be void</li><li>the method can be static or 
non-static</li><li>the method must have 2 or more parameters</li><li>the 
parameters is paired so the first 50% is applied to the <tt>oldExchnage</tt> 
and the reminder 50% is for the <tt>newExchange</tt></li><li>.. meaning that 
there must be an equal number of parameters, eg 2, 4, 6 etc.</li></ul>
+
+
+<p>The paired methods is expected to be ordered as follows:</p>
+<ul class="alternate" type="square"><li>the first parameter is the message 
body</li><li>the 2nd parameter is a Map of the headers</li><li>the 3rd 
parameter is a Map of the Exchange properties</li></ul>
+
+
+<p>This convention is best explained with some examples.</p>
+
+<p>In the method below, we have only 2 parameters, so the 1st parameter is the 
body of the <tt>oldExchange</tt>, and the 2nd is paired to the body of the 
<tt>newExchange</tt>:</p>
+<div class="code panel" style="border-width: 1px;"><div class="codeContent 
panelContent">
+<script class="theme: Default; brush: java; gutter: false" 
type="syntaxhighlighter"><![CDATA[
+public String append(String existing, String next) {
+  return existing + next;
+}
+]]></script>
+</div></div>
+
+<p>In the method below, we have only 4 parameters, so the 1st parameter is the 
body of the <tt>oldExchange</tt>, and the 2nd is the Map of the 
<tt>oldExchange} headers, and the 3rd is paired to the body of the 
{{newExchange</tt>, and the 4th parameter is the Map of the 
<tt>newExchange</tt> headers:</p>
+<div class="code panel" style="border-width: 1px;"><div class="codeContent 
panelContent">
+<script class="theme: Default; brush: java; gutter: false" 
type="syntaxhighlighter"><![CDATA[
+public String append(String existing, Map existingHeaders, String next, Map 
nextHeaders) {
+  return existing + next;
+}
+]]></script>
+</div></div>
+
+<p>And finally if we have 6 parameters the we also have the properties of the 
<a shape="rect" href="exchange.html" title="Exchange">Exchange</a>s:</p>
+<div class="code panel" style="border-width: 1px;"><div class="codeContent 
panelContent">
+<script class="theme: Default; brush: java; gutter: false" 
type="syntaxhighlighter"><![CDATA[
+public String append(String existing, Map existingHeaders, Map 
existingProperties, String next, Map nextHeaders, Map nextProperties) {
+  return existing + next;
+}
+]]></script>
+</div></div>
