AsciiDoc

We keep the documentation in the source code in the javadoc for the
setter methods on the component and endpoint classes.

We use this to generate and keep documentation up to date. Though this
is not yet complete and work in progress. But eventually the Camel
documentation on the website will be generated from this that ensures
the doc is always up to date with the actual source code.

So you may want to submit PRs to fix those docs in the source code as well.

You can see the generated docs in some of the components such as
https://github.com/apache/camel/blob/master/components/camel-ahc/src/main/docs/ahc-component.adoc

eg the components that have a ascii doc file.

So if you look in that adoc file you can see

// component options: START
// component options: END

// endpoint options: START
// endpoint options: END

 
then when building the source code, then the options within that
comment section is generated from the source code. So just change the
docs in the source and the adoc is updated.
