Constructor & Destructor Documentation

shibsp::AssertionConsumerService::AssertionConsumerService	(	const xercesc::DOMElement *	e,
		const char *	appId,
		xmltooling::logging::Category &	log
	)			[protected]

Constructor.

Parameters:

	e	root of DOM configuration
	appId	ID of application that "owns" the handler
	log	a logging object to use

Member Function Documentation

std::pair<bool,long> shibsp::AssertionConsumerService::run	(	SPRequest &	request,
		bool	isHandler = true
	)			const [virtual]

Executes handler functionality as an incoming request.

Handlers can be run either directly by incoming web requests or indirectly/implicitly during other SP processing.

Parameters:

	request	SP request context
	isHandler	true iff executing in the context of a direct handler invocation

Returns:

a pair containing a "request completed" indicator and a server-specific response code

Implements shibsp::Handler.

void shibsp::AssertionConsumerService::receive	(	DDF &	in,
		std::ostream &	out
	)			[virtual]

Remoted classes implement this method to process incoming messages.

Parameters:

	in	incoming DDF message
	out	stream to write outgoing DDF message to

Implements shibsp::Remoted.

void shibsp::AssertionConsumerService::checkAddress	(	const Application &	application,
		const xmltooling::HTTPRequest &	httpRequest,
		const char *	issuedTo
	)			const [protected]

Enforce address checking requirements.

Parameters:

	application	reference to application receiving message
	httpRequest	client request that initiated session
	issuedTo	address for which security assertion was issued

void shibsp::AssertionConsumerService::generateMetadata	(	opensaml::saml2md::SPSSODescriptor &	role,
		const char *	handlerURL
	)			const [protected, virtual]

Generates and/or modifies metadata reflecting the Handler.

The default implementation does nothing.

Parameters:

	role	metadata role to decorate
	handlerURL	base location of handler's endpoint

Reimplemented from shibsp::Handler.

virtual void shibsp::AssertionConsumerService::implementProtocol	(	const Application &	application,
		const xmltooling::HTTPRequest &	httpRequest,
		xmltooling::HTTPResponse &	httpResponse,
		opensaml::SecurityPolicy &	policy,
		const PropertySet *	settings,
		const xmltooling::XMLObject &	xmlObject
	)			const [protected, pure virtual]

Implement protocol-specific handling of the incoming decoded message.

The result of implementing the protocol should be an exception or modifications to the request/response objects to reflect processing of the message.

Parameters:

	application	reference to application receiving message
	httpRequest	client request that included message
	httpResponse	response to client
	policy	the SecurityPolicy in effect, after having evaluated the message
	settings	policy configuration settings in effect
	xmlObject	a protocol-specific message object

virtual void shibsp::AssertionConsumerService::extractMessageDetails	(	const opensaml::Assertion &	assertion,
		const XMLCh *	protocol,
		opensaml::SecurityPolicy &	policy
	)			const [protected, virtual]

Extracts policy-relevant assertion details.

Parameters:

	assertion	the incoming assertion
	protocol	the protocol family in use
	policy	SecurityPolicy to provide various components and track message data

ResolutionContext* shibsp::AssertionConsumerService::resolveAttributes	(	const Application &	application,
		const opensaml::saml2md::RoleDescriptor *	issuer = NULL,
		const XMLCh *	protocol = NULL,
		const opensaml::saml1::NameIdentifier *	v1nameid = NULL,
		const opensaml::saml2::NameID *	nameid = NULL,
		const XMLCh *	authncontext_class = NULL,
		const XMLCh *	authncontext_decl = NULL,
		const std::vector< const opensaml::Assertion * > *	tokens = NULL
	)			const [protected]

Attempt SSO-initiated attribute resolution using the supplied information, including NameID and token extraction and filtering followed by secondary resolution.

The caller must free the returned context handle.

Parameters:

	application	reference to application receiving message
	issuer	source of SSO tokens
	protocol	SSO protocol used
	v1nameid	identifier of principal in SAML 1.x form, if any
	nameid	identifier of principal in SAML 2.0 form
	authncontext_class	method/category of authentication event, if known
	authncontext_decl	specifics of authentication event, if known
	tokens	available assertions, if any

const char* shibsp::AssertionConsumerService::getType

(

)

const [inline, virtual]

Returns the "type" of the Handler plugin.

Returns:

a Handler type

Reimplemented from shibsp::Handler.
