Annotation Type OutboundAttachments

@Target(value=PARAMETER)
@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
@Documented
public @interface OutboundAttachments

Used on component methods, this parameter annotation passes in a reference to a Map that can be used to populate outbound attachments that will be set with the outgoing message. For example, when sending an email message, you may want to add attachments such as images or documents.

This annotation must only be defined on a parameter of type Map. The elements in the map will be of type DataHandler, thus the annotated parameter should be defined as java.util.Map<java.lang.String, javax.activation.DataHandler> where the key is the attachment name and the value is the handler for the attachment.
