camel-xmljson define output types - apache-camel

Question

I am using camel-xmljson component to transform xml to json in spring.
I have the next code in my camel-context:
<dataFormats>
<xmljson id="xmljson" forceTopLevelObject="false"/>
</dataFormats>
<route id="LCG-Producer" autoStartup="false">
<from uri="activemq:to_in"/>
<marshal ref="xmljson"/>
<to uri="activemq:to_out"/>
</route>
The body to transform is the next:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<example>
<cadena1>aaaaaaa</cadena1>
<entero1>1511</entero1>
</example>
The problem is that the json generated is the next:
{
"cadena1": "aaaaaaa",
"entero1": "1511"
}
The field "entero1" is generated as a String and it is an Integer, i mean, i need that output (without ""):
{
"cadena1": "aaaaaaa",
"entero1":1511
}
Is there any way to define the data format?

I have checked source code of XmlJsonDataFormat and I guess it is not possible.
However you can use same serializers to make you our processor.
For example:
(Disclaimer: the code is not efficient, it is only to give you ideas)
#Override
public void process(Exchange exchange) throws Exception {
XMLSerializer serializer = new XMLSerializer();
JSON json=serializer.read(exchange.getIn().getBody(String.class));
StringWriter writer=new StringWriter();
JsonConfig jsonConfig=new JsonConfig();
jsonConfig.registerJsonValueProcessor("entero1", new JsonValueProcessor() {
#Override
public Object processArrayValue(Object value, JsonConfig jsonConfig) {
return new BigDecimal(value.toString());
}
#Override
public Object processObjectValue(String key, Object value, JsonConfig jsonConfig) {
return new BigDecimal(value.toString());
}
});
JSONSerializer.toJSON(json, jsonConfig).write(writer);
writer.close();
exchange.getIn().setBody(writer.toString());
}

According to this document http://json-lib.sourceforge.net/usage.html#xml xmlserializer treats all data as string, unless "type" attribute is specified on the xml element, e.g.:
<example>
<cadena1>aaaaaaa</cadena1>
<entero1 type="number">1511</entero1>
</example>
