[higgins-dev] Proposed change to IdAS

["Jim Sermersheim" <jimse@xxxxxxxxxx>]

While integrating code for the demo, we found that we needed to allow an IdAS consumer to specify a list of attributes to fetch when calling IContext.getDigitalSubject.

 

As it turns out, the JNDI provider requires certain types of attributes (in LDAP called "operational attributes") to be fetched if asked for by name.  There's no way (with JNDI) to fetch "all operational attributes".

 

So locally, I've added IContext.getSubject(String cuid, Iterable<URI> attrSelectionList) where attrSelectionList is a list of attribute types that the consumer expects to read from the resulting IDigitalSubject.  I just wanted to see if this causes any problems before I committed it.
