Re: [higgins-dev] Picking a Higgins Selector - Advice

[Paul Trevithick <ptrevithick@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Kevin,

You're correct for Higgins 1.1 there is no java selector. The GTK Selector 1.1 in C++ is one codebase you could use. Unfortunately this GTK code base will soon be replaced by a Qt-based code base that will ultimately be what's in Higgins 1.1. So it is, well, temporary. We're in limbo until the new Qt-based code is checked in. One last thought is you could look at the OpenInfoCard Project http://code.google.com/p/openinfocard/. 

HTH,

Hello,

 

I am a student at Purdue university working on a prototype for a research project.  The project is part of the VeryIDX project and is related to extending our protocols for use in Windows CardSpace protocols and we wanted to use the Higgins selector because it is open and seemed easy to implement extensions.  Last semester we tried using the RCP selector and ran into lots of issues during setup and never was successful with simply using a normal CardSpace card.  This was because I was told the project was out of date and I should use a newer one. 

 

Is there another selector we can use that is maintained if I have a few questions during setup?  Most of our code is in Java, but I do not think there is a current selector in Java.  However, if the selector is easier to understand, I think it would be easier to rewrite our java code in the new language.

 

 

Thanks,
