# Description Slice of the larger CAMEL-23703 unified Camel CLI package distribution effort, split out for focused review. This branch is **independent** of the other CAMEL-23703 slices and targets `main` directly. It adds a native x64 **`bin/camel.exe`** to the `camel-launcher` Windows distribution, alongside `bin/camel.bat`. `camel.exe` is a thin bootstrap: it locates the adjacent `camel.bat`, forwards all arguments verbatim (preserving spaces and Unicode), inherits the standard streams, and returns the child exit code. It performs no Java discovery or option parsing itself, that all remains in `camel.bat`. The executable exists so package managers that require a genuine executable command (such as WinGet's portable installer) can expose `camel` directly. Direct users may keep invoking `bin\camel.bat`; both behave identically. Windows ARM64 and x86 are not yet supported. Included: the C bootstrap source and its README, Maven profiles that build and gate the native image, inclusion of `camel.exe` in the bin archives, a Windows behavioral test, a Windows x64 CI workflow, and an upgrade-guide note. # Target - [x] I checked that the commit is targeting the correct branch (Camel 4 uses the `main` branch) # Tracking - [x] If this is a large change, bug fix, or code improvement, I checked there is a [JIRA issue](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-23703) filed for the change (usually before you start working on it). # Apache Camel coding standards and style - [x] I checked that each commit in the pull request has a meaningful subject line and body. - [ ] I have run `mvn clean install -DskipTests` locally from root folder and I have committed all auto-generated changes. _`mvn formatter:format impsort:sort` has been applied. A full-repo build verification is still in progress; this PR is intentionally opened as a draft until that completes._ # AI-assisted contributions - [x] If this PR includes AI-generated code, commits have proper co-authorship attribution (e.g., `Co-authored-by` trailers) and the PR description identifies the AI tool used. --- _Claude Code (Opus 4.8) on behalf of ammachado_ -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
