Apache Camel Spring-WS route not initializing

Question

I'm struggling with a Spring-WS route I'd like to add in my Spring-boot application. I keep getting the following exception on startup:

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No instance of CamelSpringWSEndpointMapping found in Spring ApplicationContext. This bean is required for Spring-WS consumer support (unless the 'spring-ws:beanname:' URI scheme is used)
    at org.apache.camel.component.spring.ws.SpringWebserviceComponent.addEndpointMappingToConfiguration(SpringWebserviceComponent.java:142)
    at org.apache.camel.component.spring.ws.SpringWebserviceComponent.addConsumerConfiguration(SpringWebserviceComponent.java:83)
    at org.apache.camel.component.spring.ws.SpringWebserviceComponent.createEndpoint(SpringWebserviceComponent.java:67)
    at org.apache.camel.impl.DefaultComponent.createEndpoint(DefaultComponent.java:114)
    at org.apache.camel.impl.DefaultCamelContext.getEndpoint(DefaultCamelContext.java:568)
    ... 40 common frames omitted

This is very odd, as I explicitly add the CamelEndpointMapping (which extends from CamelSpringWSEndpointMapping) in my Spring configuration like this:

@EnableWs
@SpringBootApplication
public class Application
{
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
    }

    @Bean
    public ServletRegistrationBean messageDispatcherServlet(ApplicationContext applicationContext)
    {
        MessageDispatcherServlet messageDispatcherServlet = new MessageDispatcherServlet();
        messageDispatcherServlet.setApplicationContext(applicationContext);
        messageDispatcherServlet.setTransformWsdlLocations(true);

        return new ServletRegistrationBean(messageDispatcherServlet, "/soap/*");
    }

    @Bean
    public CamelEndpointMapping endpointMapping()
    {
        return new CamelEndpointMapping();
    }
}

My route:

@Component
public class MyRoutes extends RouteBuilder
{
    @Override
    public void configure() throws Exception
    {
        from("spring-ws:soapaction:http://example.com/myservice")
         .to("log:cameltest?level=DEBUG");
    }
}

What am I doing wrong here? You can find full source of my sample project on GitHub: https://github.com/verhage/cameltest

It looks like the error message is misleading.
Your URL needs to look like this:

spring-ws:soapaction:XXX?endpointMapping=endpointMapping 

(found by debugging SpringWebserviceComponent.addConsumerConfiguration and stepping through)
