Description

In Java 8 annotations are duplicated to generics' bridge methods. Camel, rightly, does not support bridge methods as endpoints. However, because of this change in the language annotations such as @Consume will end up on them after compilation leaving Camel in an invalid state.

I will attach a sample project.
