[cas-dev] CAS Client for Java 3.1

So basically, if you want people to log out of all applications upon log
out, you would simply point them to the CAS logout servlet, which would
send logout requests to all of the services the user had a service
ticket validated by.  If you want per-application logout, then you would
need the page you described.

 

We have been tossing around the whole "Why does log out mean?" with SSO
and chose the logout means everything as we have a major portal that
serves applications for users.

 

Thanks Scott! =)

Our best practices says that all applications should have a local log
out (because hey, people may want to log out of your application ;-)).
Those local log out screens should inform you that you've only logged
out of that specific application and then provide a link to log out of
every application you've signed into. 

Which I guess the blurb I put in doesn't explain too well :-)

Scott,

 

Congratulations on the approaching milestone 1 release! =)

 

While looking at the documentation, I noticed a point of confusion.  In
the "Configuring the CAS Client" section, there is a link to
"Configuring Single Sign Out", but at the bottom of the page there is
the "Recommended Logout Procedure" that has users' applications hitting
an application specific logout and making the CAS logout an additional
step.

 

Could you please elaborate?

 

Once again, thanks for the hard work!

All,

I've been working on the CAS Client for Java 3.1 release when I've had
some time.  We're almost ready for an M1 release.  I've documented a lot
of things here:
http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/CASC/CAS+Client+for+Java+3.1

It explains the basic differences between the 3.0 client and the 3.1
client and includes documentation on how to use it.

One thing that isn't detailed is the things left out (for now): 
* uPortal support.  For the time being users should continue to use what
is included in the uPortal 2.x releases.  uPortal 3 will support Spring
Security (which will eventually use the new client).
* DelegatingFilter - It can't be easily supported in the web.xml
configuration.  We can include it with a note stating it can only be
configured through Spring if people think they will use it.
* Basic Authorization Filters - were people using these?  If so, we can
offer a simplified version (or just re-include the more complex ones
with the knowledge that these again require Spring). 

Please provide your thoughts on whether the second two are worth
including as "Spring-only" configuration options.

Thanks
-Scott
