Annotation Interface BridgeTo

@Target({METHOD,ANNOTATION_TYPE}) @Retention(RUNTIME) @Documented @Repeatable(BridgeToRepeatable.class) public @interface BridgeTo
Messaging Annotation to mark a Bean method for a MessageChannel to produce a BridgeHandler and Consumer Endpoint.

The MessageChannel Bean marked with this annotation is used as the inputChannel for the AbstractEndpoint and determines the type of endpoint - EventDrivenConsumer or PollingConsumer.

The value() of this annotation is the outputChannel for the BridgeHandler. If it isn't present, the BridgeHandler sends the message to the reply-channel in its message headers, if present. If no output channel is provided and no reply-channel exists, an exception is thrown.
