Re: [higgins-dev] Getting started with IdAS?

Currently, the only component being automatically built (and thus downloadable) is idas.  I know you can get and build idas, the jndi cp, and the token service.  Each component should have build instructions here.
 
Yes, IContext.open is effectively authenticate.  close is the opposite of open.  I'm not sure why, but the idas javadoc from the nightly build seems to be broken right now.  An alternate (though not in sync with the latest head code) version is here: http://www.eclipse.org/higgins/org.eclipse.higgins.docs/idas/

Ok, I'll check it out once it's done

the token service...great.Is that a download yet?  I only saw the
idas.jar under downloads

Ok, I've got these setup.  One question (might be unrelated).  Is the
"open" method on the context provider supposed to be an authentication
method?  It appears to be based on the "sample" in the jndi "dev"
package.

Thanks
