Description

Up to this documentation page, I got the impression that following code snippet:

@Bean
public static Registry createMyApplicationContextRegistry(ApplicationContext applicationContext) {
  return new MyApplicationContextRegistry(applicationContext);
}

in my Spring Application.java startup class should override the default ApplicationContextRegistry used.
This does NOT work in my case. What works is annotating (with @Bean) my custom SpringCamelContext extension, which then overrides the createRegistry method.
