Robert,
What sort of application is "my application" here? A portlet?
Additional non-portlet web-based functionality running inside of the
uPortal web application (i.e. servlets or JSPs there?) Or, best option
for purposes of loosely-coupled-ness: a totally separate
not-running-inside-uPortal Web application?
If the latter, that is, if your application is separate from uPortal,
then the casclient-2.2.0-M3 client library is irrelevant here. Not
important how uPortal happens to accomplish its own use of CAS
authentication. The part that's important is that you have a CAS 3.3.1
server, which speaks the CAS protocol, so you can use any CAS client
library you like to accomplish CASification of your application. Which
one to pick depends on what sort of application you've got, but
casclient-2.2.0-M3 won't be the right answer.
CAS server 3.3.1 is pretty old, incidentally. You should consider
upgrading the CAS server in your environment.
(uPortal 3.1.0-RC2 is pretty old too -- and a release candidate at that!
-- uPortal 4 just released and ships with a CAS server, uses a more
modern CAS client library internally, and demontrates more CAS
integration out of the box. Might be worth looking to upgrade to that too.)
Too much software to upgrade, too little time. Fortunately, tactically,
CAS 3.3.1 speaks the CAS protocol just fine and you can add your
application to participate in CAS single sign on using it with any CAS
client library you like.
Best wishes,
Andrew

the CAS server i get autheticated in my application too .how can i do this
thanks for your help
Do you already have a working CAS server? I believe that CAS client
is specific to uPortal; if so they UP folks may be able to provide
better support. I have no experience with it.
