The Class Mediator creates an instance of a custom-specified class and sets it as a mediator. The class must implement the org.apache.synapse.api.Mediator interface. If any properties are specified, the corresponding setter methods are invoked once on the class during initialization.

In this configuration, the ESB hands over the request message to the specified endpoint, which sends it to the Axis2 server running on port 9000. But the response message is passed through the Class Mediator before sending it back to the client. Two parameters named varible1 and varible2 are passed to the instance mediator implementation class (SimpleClassMediator). Look at the following sample Class Mediator and note the SynapseMessageContext and the full Synapse API in there.
