Key Security, Maintenance, and Features Releases

Non-Security Updates

Apache Camel 3.4

This release is mostly about robustness and bug fixes.

We have also continued the work to make Camel more modular and lighter. This time we removed the dependency on JAXB in the Swagger and OpenAPI modules. This helps Camel on GraalVM and native compilation as JAXB is a heavy piece of stack, allowing GraalVM to eliminate it more easily.

We continued to remove usage of reflection in Camel and found a few spots more where reflection was in use, when configuring nested options.

We also added back support for configuring duration values using the shorthand syntax, such as timeout=30000 can be specified as timeout=30s. We had to remove this in earlier versions of Camel 3 due to optimizations. But for Camel 3.4 we found a new way.
