"Library initialization takes place using the SAMLConfig::init() method.
SAMLConfig is a singleton that is accessed using the
SAMLConfig::getInstance() method."

In other words:

SAMLConfig::getConfig().init()

There are not going to be samples any time soon. They take a lot of time,
and I do not have it. There are a lot of unit tests. That is all I have.

I will try and flesh out the Wiki material since the library is pretty close
to feature complete now.

Please be sure you've generated the the doxygen material during the build
process, which should happen on Unix automatically. Virtually all the
classes and methods are documented.
