Thanks, Scott.

 

I have a question related to another response you sent me several months
ago. You mentioned the availability of EventHandlers that I might
leverage for the purpose of integrating CAS with a presence server (I
called it a registry in my last email). You indicated that I could trap
events like login, logout, etc. I have found three event types in the
JavaDocs for authorization, httprequest, and ticket. But I don't see
anything for log outs. Is this something that will have been added as
part of the single sign out capability? I'm interested in creating a
custom EventHandler that traps on login and logout events and then
interacts with my 'registry'. Just to make it a little clearer why I
want to do this, we have several places where we want someone to be able
to see a real-time list of who is logged into certain applications,
where they logged in from, their location (via lookup based on IP),
names, addresses, etc. Primarily this is for an online worship center we
are developing.

 

Also, I have been able to understand the Events and EventHandlers well
enough, but I haven't yet figured out exactly how I go about registering
my own EventHandler. Is this just an update to some Spring configuration
file? Is there any documentation on doing this or can you give me the
quick and dirty description?


Thanks for your help and for continuing to support this very useful
product.

Bill & Dusty,

Sorry for the delayed response to your question.  I've unfortunately
been sidetracked on the CAS release with a few other projects.  They've
managed to delay milestone releases.

I'm hoping to schedule an M3 release for the next two days (probably
Thursday).  The M3 will technically be feature complete, though I won't
call it an RC because I want to have some time to clean up the APIs if
necessary. 

Due to the other projects, the roadmap you guys are referencing is no
longer correct.  It was rather ambitious ;-).  I'll see if I can update
it tonight.

The M3 release will include the following:
* OpenId Support (so you will be able to leverage all OpenId-enabled
applications without modifying them). 
* Google Accounts Integration (for using the Google Apps for Education).
* Single Sign Out
* Pseudo-anonymous user support.

We're still targeting a release candidate by the end of the month, most
likely by the time of the conference.  A release candidate will be
feature-complete and have a frozen API so it is safe to develop against
with the knowledge that the final release should be a drop-in
replacement. 

Thanks
-Scott

It seems I must apologize. I have searched my old emails once again and
I did find where Scott replied to my earlier question about 3.1. Sorry
bout that, Scott. In that email, he indicated that they were targeting
the end of June so it seems the old date of June 15th for the final
release may no longer hold. But he did say that a RC should contain the 
single sign-off feature and I can only hope that if the final release
will be available at the end of June, the RC might be available a few
weeks before that.

Hope this helps some.

Bill

Bill,

If it so happens that 3.1 will not be released in time to work with your
schedule, I'd be glad to share what I have done for single sign out.
It's by
far not the most robust implementation and may not work in all cases 
(I'm not
sure how well it works for proxy authentication for instance), but it
may be
enough to suit your needs for the time being or, at least, a good
jumping off
point.
