Description

If you use spring and then refer to an endpoint

        <endpoint id="csv2json" uri="dozer:csv2json?sourceModel=org.acme.Customer&amp;targetModel=org.globex.Account&amp;marshalId=json&amp;unmarshalId=csv&amp;mappingFile=transformation.xml"/>

And then in a route has

                <to id="_to2" ref="csv2json"/>

Then you get this spring error

Caused by: org.springframework.beans.NotWritablePropertyException: Invalid property 'ref' of bean class [org.apache.camel.spring.CamelEndpointFactoryBean]: Bean property 'ref' is not writable or has an invalid setter method. Does the parameter type of the setter match the return type of the getter?
