Glen Mazza commented on CXF-4457:
---------------------------------

Speaking only about #3 (not commenting one way or the other on #2), I'm not 
sure if backwards compatibility is a concern.  Presently, if you're using 
WS-SecConv but you've only configured the non-SCT versions in cxf-servlet.xml, 
there's no way your WSP would be accepting any SOAP calls anyway--you'd have a 
nonfunctioning system.  So I don't see the harm in allowing WS-SecConv to use 
the non-.sct version in a new version of CXF.  OTOH, if you do explicitly 
configure an .sct version, I would say that and only that version should be 
read, and that the non-.sct version should be ignored in that case.

> Hi, as shown for GlassFish Metro:
> https://gist.github.com/3191480 
> Support the following authentication mechanism:
> 1.) The WSC gets a SAML assertion from the STS.
> 2.) The WSC sends that SAML assertion to the WSP to get the SCT from the WSP
> 3.) All subsequent real calls for doubled numbers between WSC and WSP use the 
> SCT and not the SAML assertion.
> Here is a Netbeans-generated WSDL for this scenario:
> https://github.com/gmazza/blog-samples/blob/master/cxf_sts_tutorial/service/src/main/resources/DoubleItSecrConv.txt
> A sample testcase that can be used (steps to use: update WSP WSDL with the 
> one above, run mvn clean install tomcat7:redeploy from base folder, then mvn 
> exec:exec from client folder):
