External Authenticator: SAML Token Error

[h409]

Hi all,

I have written an external authenticator for LiveCycle 8.2 which works
like a charm.
Now I try to upgrade to 9.0 and get a warning about a null value. I
also cannot set
any values with the help of setAuthProviderSpecificTokens(tokens). I
guess that
I have to set a specific value, that is not documented.

Any help is very welcome.
Thanks, Heike

JDK? ES2 uses 1.6, 8.2 uses 1.5. If so, have you examined the
specific class with the new JDK to seek out warnings in any jars
deployed?

Can you post the code snippet which is setting the value using
setAuthProviderSpecificTokens(tokens).

Hi Duane,

thanks for your help - asking the right questions ;-)
It's like - so often - a programming fault. It's just like the error
message says: a value is null.
9.0 is more strict about name value pairs. The value may not be null.
And that's it ;-)

Thanks again. Talking helps.

Heike

p.s. nice talk on munich emea
p.p.s I'll come back with questions about SSO - I am sure ...
