Yes, that was the issue. I was using an old version of the RCP
selector. For some reason svn eclipse plugin was not replacing my projects to
latest even if I choose Team -> Replace with … -> Base version. Since
the communication protocol changed with latest RCP, FF is submitting the token
with "<COMMAND>KEEP
CONNECTED</COMMAND>"
string to RP which made the token invalid.
I checked in a fix for it. Please download the latest xpi and
try it when you get a chance.

Jeesmon,
I have checked
that code in.
From the
following screen shot I found you are not using the lastest code in SVN head,
right? The message between HBX and CRPPS is changed at the period of RSA
interop, so maybe you need have a check at the lastest code.
In my current
code, I send out a maintain message "<COMMAND>KEEP
CONNECTED</COMMAND>"
from the CRPPS to the HBX to keep the connection active. (This message is sent
out every minute before the security token is sent.) The HBX doesn't reply any
ACK message. Of course this is a very simple solution.

Hi Tie Li,
Thanks for trying it out. Could you please
tell me which RP did you use for your testing? I was able to get it working on
Higgins RP Demo App at https://higgins.eclipse.org/RelyingPartyDemoApp and https://xmldap.org/relyingparty. Also did you make the changes that I mentioned in
the email for org.eclipse.higgins.crpps/src/org/eclipse/higgins/crpps/service/RPPSService2.java
?
Please see the attached screen-shots. My OS
is Vista and FF version is 2.0.0.14.
Looks like socket connection is timing out
when you wait for 5 minutes without sending the token. I’ll take a look
at the IE extension to see how the socket timeout is handled there and try to
do the same for FF too.
Thanks,
Jeesmon

I have tested the new Firefox extension, and
I can use it launch the RCP identity selector too. It's cool!
But I still got some problems, the first
thing is, the socket connection can not maintain a longer time in my machine
(if I leave the RCP selector open for 5 minutes, the web page auto
re-directed.) Another thing is, my security token never posted to the site yet.
I guess there's still some flaw in the
protocol bewteen these two components, I need have more investigation in your
code...

Yes, I'd like to take a look at it. If
you can point me at some source code, I'll try to get the client-based selector
to launch.

Actually, I just finished a "selector
connector" for safari yesterday. It is very rough around the
edges, but it launches the AIR selector on xmldap.org, so that's a
start. Would you like to take a look at it Andy? I
suppose I can put it up on the Wiki somewhere...

Very cool. If we add support for
Axel's selector (OpenInfoCard) and CardSpace, we will have coverage for all of

anyone else working on supporting Safari? If so, we should
collaborate.

Hi Mike/Tie Li,
I checked in a Firefox extension that can
launch external selectors directly or using Higgins Selector Selector. It is based
on Novell’s firefox addon for client based selector and it has the
support to directly launch Higgins selectors (Client Based Selector, RCP
Selector and AIR Selector). You can find more information on this extension athttp://wiki.eclipse.org/Higgins_Browser_Extension_for_Firefox and installation steps at
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Higgins_Browser_Extension_for_Firefox_Installation
I use nsISocketTransportService (http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Proxies_in_Necko#SOCKS_and_nsISocketTransportService) to connect to RCP Selector from the browser. But I
couldn't find a way to inform the socket server that there is no more data to
send like you did in IE by calling shutdown with how = SD_SEND. So the
while(true) loop in RCP Selector waits forever. I tried flushing and closing
outputstream but socket server is not recognizing it as EOF. I cannot close the
connection as the browser needs to wait for the token from RCP Selector. Until
we figure out a solution (not sure whether we will), would it be possible for
RCP Selector to break the while(true) loop if the input is terminated with the
null char (\0)? I remember seeing \0 as the input terminator char in other
socket implementations. Since \0 is not a legal char for the XML input that RCP
Selector is getting, I don't think it will break anything else.
In line # 80 of
org.eclipse.higgins.crpps/src/org/eclipse/higgins/crpps/service/RPPSService2.java
(parseInput method)
change
while (true) {
int
ch = in.read();
if
(ch == -1)
break;
// end-of-stream, assumes that sender closes sock @ end
//
of message. which is not a must in HTTP....
.....
}
to
while (true) {
int
ch = in.read();
if
(ch == -1 || ch == '\0') // <------ break on null char
also
break;
// end-of-stream, assumes that sender closes sock @ end
//
of message. which is not a must in HTTP....
.....
}
I tested RCP Selector with this change and I
was able to successfully use it from FF. Please let me know if this change can
be committed so that we can use RCP selector for more platforms and browsers. I
assume there is no FF extension is created for RCP Selector so far.
Thanks a lot for your input on this.
Regards,
Jeesmon
