Simple Java client for accessing Shibboleth-protected services?

[Richard Eckart de Castilho]

> I have implemented a HttpClient variant based on Apache Commons httpcore 4.2.2 and opensaml 2.5.3 which tries to detect if the remote site is protected using Shibboleth and if so, tries to log in to a predefined IdP using ECP and a username and password.

For anybody interested and of course open to comments:
