Choice component in mule demo

1. By
Sudha Ch

2.  The main motto of this PPT is how to use
Choice component in our applications.

3.  The choice flow control dynamically routes
messages based on message payload or
properties. It adds conditional programming
to a flow, similar to an if/then/elsecode
block.

7.  Flow of execution:
1. URL to trigger the service from browser
http://localhost:8089/choice
2. session property is created using message
property component In flow1
3. Service displays session properties in flow1,
flow2
4. In flow2 the choice component checks the
value of the session property is ‘mule’ or not, if
true then it displays “the value of session
property (property1) is 'mule” else it goes and
displays data in default component
