<pre wrap="">Yeah, that seems off-hand like the obvious way to do it. And have a new support method on SAMLBindingSupport to eval it, to hide the details. That could then be usable via a Predicate and/or directly in the XML signing handler, depending on which approach works better.

Actually, since this will be a new minor release and we can add API,
another idea might be to add a Predicate activationCondition to
AbstractMessageHandler, that is evaled in doPreInvoke(...). That
would give all the handlers similar conditional execution capability
as the actions.<br>
<br>
It would have to be a Predicate<MessageContext>. We could
have such a predicate for this, I suppose. But for more general use
in server-side cases like the IdP where there's a PRC, we could also
have an adapter allowing use of existing
Predicate<ProfileRequestContext> impls. For the latter, we'd
need to do the thing that I was 99.9% sure we need to do anyway to
fully support the SOAP client, which is to allow walking via
MessageContext#getParent() up to the owning PRC (and potentially
down to the other MessageContext). I was going to add that
soon-ish, it's a pretty trivial change. <br>
<br>
I'll look at this more tomorrow, but at the moment this feels like
the most general and useful solution.<br>
