Hi Venugopal,

Context objects are alternative to XPATH expressions. It is like macros in other programming langugage. If you define this , you can use this object in the receiver determination while doing conditional receiver determination

Hi,

Context Object is the alternative to Xpath to access the content of a message element at runtime, this is to be defined in design time , and refer in messafe interface .

The use of context object, we can use it to access the content of a element in message in runtme. second case based on content we can route the message in condition.

Context objects are a simple alternative to XPath expressions for accessing the contents of a message

In short, context objects are used to replace the complex Xpath expression. It is used for checking a particular field's value at runtime.

Scenario. If the sender msg has the value 1 in node<id> send the msg to target1 and if it has the value 2 send it to target 2. Here we create a context object and assign it to the id node in sender interface. In receiver determination we use the context object to check the value.
