Usage of OpenSAML C++

Scott will correct me, but "as much as required to support Shibboleth", sums it up.  Since Shibboleth is the most complete of the SAML implementations it should have as much as you need.

I just ran that test your point of failure successfully.  

To note I had set up the following in my environment (which was Windows, which requires rather more setup).

For the build environment (windows only):
	PARENTROOT
	[suitable edited Version.props]

For Shibboleth (so probably not relevant):
	SHIBSP_PREFIX
	SHIBSP_CFGDIR
	SHIBSP_SCHEMAS

For OpenSAML
	SAMLTEST_DATA
	PATH pointing to the dependencies (hand built for Windows)
	<Current Working Directory> ..../cpp-opensaml/xmltoolingtest

I suspect that it is the last that you are missing.
