Hi, I am working on scenario, where CXF JAX-RS service requests SAML token from STS. Currently is quite easy to validate SAML against STS in JAX-RS Service and issue SAML internally using SamlCallbackHandler: http://cxf.apache.org/docs/jax-rs-saml.html. Unfortunately there is no easy way to request SAML from STS for the JAX-RS services: it is necessary to write own interceptor, configure STS client, implement issue and renew logic, etc.
>From my perspective it could make sense to reuse some functionality from >IssuedTokenOutInterceptor for JAX-RS services as well. In this case it would >be necessary to extract some IssuedTokenOutInterceptor code into appropriate >utility methods (STSUtils ?) and make it independent from WS-Policy stuff. >After that we can add new interceptor for JAX-RS services reusing code in >utility module. Any thoughts and objections? Regards, Andrei.
