KeyInfoBuilder in OpenSAML 3

[Stephen.CTR.Chappell at faa.gov]

Hi Brent -

Thanx, I knew it had to be somewhere! Finding where things moved between v2 and v3 has been a bit of a challenge.

I'm not sure what you mean exactly by not making direct use of the -Builders. I'm doing something like this:

XMLObjectProviderRegistry xmlObjectRegistry = ConfigurationService.get(XMLObjectProviderRegistry.class);
XMLObjectBuilderFactory builderFactory = xmlObjectRegistry.getBuilderFactory();
...
KeyInfoBuilder kiBuilder = (KeyInfoBuilder) builderFactory.getBuilder(KeyInfo.DEFAULT_ELEMENT_NAME);
ki = (KeyInfo) kiBuilder.buildObject(KeyInfo.DEFAULT_ELEMENT_NAME);

And I follow the same pattern for Assertions and other stuff I need to build. I think that's in line with the v2 example you referenced?

No, it does exist. org.opensaml.xmlsec.signature.impl.KeyInfoBuilder in module opensaml-saml-impl.





Should I just use a XMLObjectBuilder<KeyInfo> instead?

I just mentioned this recently in another thread:


Btw, in both v2 and v3 we discourage direct use of the -Builder classes like that.  We recommend you obtain XMLObject builders, marshallers and unmarshallers via the registered providers.  In v2, builder usage:

In v3, no wiki docs yet, but either use the global XMLObjectProviderRegistry via org.opensaml.core.xml.config.XMLObjectProviderRegistrySupport, or the higher level methods on org.opensaml.core.xml.util.XMLObjectSupport.
