The SAML specification [1] defines the standard protocol that you
should use to send a request to a SAML authority. In particular, you
want to see the "Assertions and Protocols" portion of the spec [2],
which defines the structure of the request and response messages, and
the "Bindings" spec [3], which defines the SOAP binding. You must use
document/literal.

As an alternative to the SAML protocol, you could use WS-Trust [4],
but WS-Trust is not as specifically defined.

Hello, I'm new to axis and I am using the 1.3 version.
My goal is to implement a web service where the client sends a SAML request
(maybe packaged in a soap body) and receives a SAML assertion. No subject
confirmation or security concerns are required. Where can I get started with
this? Can I do that by using a rpc style web service? Any help, tutorial,
sample or sommething else will be very helpful,
thank you in advance,

Claudio Maraniello
