Description

The attached patch upgrades to 2.8.0-SNAPSHOT (actually a specific version, but pretty close to today).

Only a few changes were required:

• Change package declarations to new 2.8 style that allows relative imports
• Change org.apache.camel.scala.conveters.ScalaTypeConverter from a singleton object to a class. Otherwise ObjectHelper failed to instantiate the converter due to private access. (This could be 2.8 bug. I will need to raise an issue.)
• Removed generic parameters on references to java classes that were not generic. Don't know why this compiled with scala 2.7.
