That would mean including a web server, and OpenSAML is a toolkit, not a
server. The message related classes have adapters that work with the Java
servlet API and the rest is just your business.

By hand using a Java servlet container basically, with the library handling
message encoding/decoding and security. This is all a fair amount of work.
I'd consider implementing your system on top of Shibboleth as a profile
handler extension instead. That will save you months of work.
