[higgins-dev] Start an iCard AuthN from Standalone Java Application

[David Campos <noymn.the.archangel@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello all,

I would like to ask you a brief help in a matter I've been asked. We would know whether is possible to start an iCard Authentication from a client that is just a standalone application, a java client. This client should take part in the iCard AuthN process with the RP role, should be able to start the process and consume the final token.
In this case, the application is on the same system that the client cardselector and the final communication is local.

I've talked with some MSDN CardSpace developer about this and they said me that is possible to do that creating a WSF-Service that could launch iCard AuthN protocol and handle the token but I would like to know if there is any kind of Higgins solution for this :)

If I remember well some time ago I saw a mail in the mailing list talking about some kind of iCard Java client api but I've not been able to find it now. Could you enlighten me about this? Is possible?

Thanks for your help :)

Regards,
