------------------------------------------

Hi Jan,

Thanks for your patch.

>> Even http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims is not fully 
>> supported (only ClaimType element).

According to the spec: "This profile defines the ic:ClaimType element for use 
as a child of the wst:Claims element." - it doesn't say anything about 
ClaimValue, unless I'm missing something.

I'd prefer to see the following changes to your patch - if you disagree feel 
free to argue with me ;-)

a) Make the claimParser map in RequestParser configurable - you should be able 
to spring load different implementations of the ClaimParser interface.
b) Do not add the IdentityClaimParser as a default parser. As I stated above, I 
don't believe that it's standard to have ClaimValue children of the wst:Claims 
Element. Instead, this parser should be configurable.
c) The dialect of the default claims parser should be the standard namespace.
d) Please add a test as part of this patch to show how to plug in a custom 
ClaimParser.

Thanks,

Colm.

> STS-core:
> Currently there is now way to use a custom dialect in requested claims. Even 
> http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims is not fully supported 
> (only ClaimType element).
> Therefore I introduced a new Interface ClaimParser, and a DefaultClaimParser 
> with the current parsing logic. This parser is called by default within 
> RequestParser, so that the normal cxf behavior has not changed. But to make 
> this process more flexible it is possible (with this patch) to register any 
> kind of ClaimParser supporting a specific dialect. I implemented a 
> IdentityClaimParser which is currently able to parser CustomType and 
> CustomValueType elements within the wst:claims element. Since the current 
> RequestClaim does not support any claim values, except of the Uri attribute, 
> I created a SubClass ClaimValueType to also pass the claim value to the claim 
> handler.
> This patch is just a starting point. I think there should be a more complex 
> redesign of the current claim handling implementation, because it is 
> currently focused on only one Use-Case. The following improvements should be 
> made:
> * The RequestClaim class should be replaced by a more flexible interface 
> supporting any kind of parsing and handling custom dialects.
> * It should be possible to include/configure custom claimparser via spring 
> config
> * A fully supported implementation of 
> http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims dialect would be great
> Here is an example of a claims STS request which is supported by applying 
> this patch:
> <wst:Claims Dialect="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity"; 
> xmlns:ic="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity";>
>   <ic:ClaimValue 
> Uri="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/role"/>admin</ic:ClaimValue>
> </wst:Claims>
> Thank you for this great product!! I hope this patch can help to further 
> improve CXF.
> Best regards
> Jan
