authnContextTranslationStrategyEx: passing through the authenticationContextClassRef unmodified?

[Wessel, Keith]

Ah. Didn't notice the difference between the authnContextClassRef object that I'm getting back and the principal that I need to put in the collection to return. I get it now.

According to the docs, the AuthnContextClassRef interface doesn't have a getURL method. It has a getAuthnContextClassRef method that returns a string, and I believe that's what I want. But the method is marked as deprecated. Is there another way to get the URL out?

https://shibboleth.net/sites/release/java-opensaml/4.1.1/apidocs/org/opensaml/saml/saml2/core/AuthnContextClassRef.html#getAuthnContextClassRef()

I don't see any other methods that will give me this string.

(Meaning wrap the underlying string value which you have to get via getURL.) An AuthnContextClassRef in the API is an XMLObject, not a string, and the return value of the function is Collection<Principal> so there's translation involved.

    You can't just return it, you still have to wrap it in a Principal of the right type.
