This example shows you that Camel can be used in standalone mode
as a _public static void main_ application.
The example has only 1 java file in the link:../basic/src/main/java/org/apache/camel/example/basic/CamelBasic.java[`CamelBasic.java`] located in the src folder.
There is code comments explaining in more details.
=== Build
You will need to compile this example first:
[source,sh]
----
$ mvn compile
----
=== Run
To run the example type
[source,sh]
----
$ mvn camel:run
----
To stop the example hit `ctrl+c`
You can also run the example from your editor such as Eclipse, IDEA etc,
by opening the class link:../basic/src/main/java/org/apache/camel/example/basic/CamelBasic.java[org.apache.camel.example.basic.CamelBasic.java]
and then right click, and chose run java application.
