Shibboleth Developers

Jeff, this message is relayed from Chad.  Hopefully it will help you out.

All of the pluggable components are controlled by Spring now. For the items that I expected people to configure I created custom XML schemas for the configuration. If you want to write a custom plugin you should probably check out the Spring documentation on this.

http://static.springframework.org/spring/docs/2.0.x/reference/extensible-xml.html

You can check out all the current plugin/spring code by looking in the config package in the shib-common project. They should offer pretty good examples.

Chad, 

I was not working with my custom connector yet, just experimenting with

the attribute encoder.  Thanks for the info.

I have now ported my custom data connector from Shib 1.3 to Shib 2.0,

and I believe it is okay, but there is some binding somewhere I can't

find.  In the old resolver, you could specify the classname from the

resolver.xml; in the current releases, the classes are never specified,

just the name.  I believe there is some configuration file or class that

I am overlooking that I need to update so that Shibboleth can use my

connector.  Any pointers would be great.

My instinct is that the file I need to update is internal.xml, since it

includes many maps of ID to class, but I see nothing in the file related

to data connectors, so if I do need to update it, I'm unsure how.

Thanks,

Jeff
