Sample Dataconnector for Shib 3.1

[Krug, Jeff]

You can handle the JIRA side of things.  That does sound useful to me.

Thanks,
Jeff

It does – there are several test files which do this.  It’s pretty pig ugly
mind you because you have to bracket everything with a <beans> statement and
you sometimes need a bit of knowledge on how the particular custom parser
works to know what else you need to do (if anything).  Some parsers
(MetadataProvider being one) “look around” themselves so as to “do the right
thing – this allows us to have multiple single file MetadataProviders whilst
also supporting the old RelyingParty syntax.

For plugin writers, I think the greatest value would be if I spent some time
working out how (if?) we can use native syntax to configure them and then
prove and example somewhere.  If the team think this is a good idea then
I’ll file an RFI (unless Jeff wants to).
