Possible bug with int:recipient-list-router + output-channel

[dr_pompeii]

Hello guys

Working with SI 2.0.5 and doing some experiments with routers, I found out the follow situation

If I use

<int:recipient-list-router input-channel="inicio" >
		<int:recipient channel="dvdChannel" />
		<int:recipient channel="instrumentoMusicalChannel"/>		
</int:recipient-list-router>

work fine

But if I add an available attribute called output-channel, which STS 2.7.0 let me select and configure

<int:channel id="prefinal" />

<int:recipient-list-router input-channel="inicio" output-channel="prefinal">
	<int:recipient channel="dvdChannel" />
	<int:recipient channel="instrumentoMusicalChannel"/>		
</int:recipient-list-router>

I receive instead

Exception in thread "main" 
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: 
Error creating bean with name 'org.springframework.integration.router.RecipientListRouter#0':

Is it a bug?

Yes, can you please open a JIRA for that? The 'output-channel' attribute should not be allowed on the 'recipient-list-router' element. In fact, any router's actual purpose is to determine the output channel. That's why the optional *default* output channel is the only configuration option that should be allowed there.

thanks,
Mark

Hello Mark

Yes, can you please open a JIRA for that?

Done, https://jira.springsource.org/browse/INT-2053

The 'output-channel' attribute should not be allowed on the 'recipient-list-router' element.

I see now

In fact, any router's actual purpose is to determine the output channel.

Agree, only choice one among the others, of course in recipient-list-router the same Message is sent or copied to all the output channels, since it has the same behavior than a *Publish-Subscribe* (in some way of course)

My Best Regards!
