Hello,
After reading about apache shiro I must admit I am a little *too* excited. I know this usually happens when I don't understand something completely and I think it's the answer to all my prayers. So I'd love for this to be an exception, I am supposed to come up with a single sign on solution for the company I work for. We have the following primary architectures: A web application that provides CRM-like functionality to a 'front-end' and back office administrative and transactional processing capabilities to a 'back-end' - all coded in Java. So in this case we are covered and have no issues using Shiro. However, we also have a reporting interface and a separate 'processing interface' - the team responsible for this mainly uses 'scripting' languages such as PHP, Ruby, and more recently, Ajax. In this regard it would be nice to know if the Apache Shiro project is able to interact with a client not programmed in java. Reading the introduction and looking over the diagram on the home page - it would seem that this is possible, that many languages and frameworks not Java based are able to use Shiro. But when I delve into the documentation and even download the code from SVN - I do not find anything that would seem to indicate that this is possible. Does anyone know where I could go to find an example integrating the Shiro code API with PHP, Ruby, Perl, etc? If there are no documentation sources, then how about classes - or just a description of how this is supposed to work? Is this some future functionality that hasn't been developed yet? Thank you! Matthew
