OpenSAML user discussion

[Antoine Tissier <>]

Thx for your answers.

But actually, i am afraid that as a user of shared hosting, i will not be able
to use this solutions.

(Java integration is quite new and is not actived by default).

I am not sure i have understood the idea of a PHP wrapper around the library.
Do you mean a "facade" that will invoke a program (through cgi or "passthru")
that will encapsulate all the functionnalities of the toolkit ?

Thx in advance

Antoine

If you're doing PHP -- the better approach would be to use a PHP wrapper
around the C++ library. Or you might be able to do it with the Java
libraries since I think Java integration is part of PHP5.
