HP Select Federation — up and running

Posted in Uncategorized by Curtis on the October 10th, 2007

After hitting virtually every roadblock imaginable (bandwidth issues, memory issues, OS issues, etc.), we’ve finally got HP’s ID-WSF 2.0-compliant “Select Federation” product up and running on Derrick’s Solaris box. Santosh and Pulkit, engineers at HP, have been very helpful in helping us get started with our interop tests. Today we’ve been extracting EPRs from the communication between HP’s IDP and their SP to use in our ClientLib testing.

ClientLib-to-HP SF interop testing will continue this evening and tomorrow.

Cranking toward the alpha

Posted in Uncategorized by Asa on the October 8th, 2007

We’ve set October 12th for our Alpha delivery. By the 12th the ClientLib will be cutting a critical path from bootstrapping a disco epr, through discovery, and interacting with a simple service. We’ve been working with Conor Cahill’s Server Toolkit as our test harness, and scraping queries from his Client.

So far so good! You can download what we have and watch the magic happen ;) - the latest versions of OpenSAML’s java libraries are required (specifically java-opensaml2, java-xmltooling, and java-openws). All of the other required jars are shipped with the OpenSAML code.

There will be a great deal more progress over the next several days, but feel free to take a look.
