Adding socket timeout to http4 client using RequestConfig in Java DSL in Camel

Question

So, I have a route which essentially looks like this-

from("direct:send_success")
        .to("http4://localhost:8089/mock/success?httpClient.socketTimeout=1000");

Using this way, I'm able to apply socket timeout of 1 sec successfully. I am using ProducerTemplate to invoke this route. This is all fine. But when I change the route to-

from("direct:send_success")
    .to("http4://localhost:8089/mock/success");

And route invocation to-

ProducerTemplate pt = ctx.createProducerTemplate();
Exchange ex = pt.send("direct:send_success", exOb -> {
    HttpComponent httpComp = exOb.getContext().getComponent("http4", HttpComponent.class);
    exOb.getContext().getComponent("http4", HttpComponent.class).setHttpClientConfigurer(httpClientBuilder -> {
            HttpClientBuilder
                .create()
                .setDefaultRequestConfig(requestConfigWithTimeout(1000))
                .build();
        });
});

And the method requestConfigWithTimeout() as-

private static RequestConfig requestConfigWithTimeout(int timeoutInMilliseconds) {
    return RequestConfig.copy(RequestConfig.DEFAULT)
            .setSocketTimeout(timeoutInMilliseconds)
            .build();
}

The timeout settings are not applied. Where am I going wrong?

You cannot change the http component after the Camel route has been created and started. Then the route was created with the http4 component which has not had its configured changed with that extra code you do.

So configure the http4 component earlier and not when you send the message.

Ok. I was able to do the same for SOAP endpoint using cxf's ClientPolicy in request header so I thought there would be a workaround here as well. Anyways, thanks for the help.
