Description

This is a nasty one.

We currently support URIs of the following form in camel-cxf:

"cxf://http://localhost:9000/CxfEndpointTest/helloworld?wsdlURL=classpath:person.wsdl&serviceName={http://camel.apache.org/wsdl-first}PersonService&portName={http://camel.apache.org/wsdl-first}soap"

As curly brackets are not valid, URIs like above are invalid. Unfortunately I suspect there are too many users who use this format now to just fix it so we need to deprecate this format, find a workaround and a solution.

The solution I am proposing is to use another parameter: targetNamespace to replace the value between the curlies for the serviceName. The portName should not be a QName actually either. As such, the example above would become:

"cxf://http://localhost:9000/CxfEndpointTest/helloworld?wsdlURL=classpath:person.wsdl&targetNamespace=http://camel.apache.org/wsdl-first&serviceName=PersonService&portName=soap"

I will look for a workaround too, to not break existing code too much.
