PredefinedBeans

A standard IdP configuration provides you with many "named beans" which are there to simplify configuration and to reduce the burden of remembering the specific class names.   For ease of navigation, this topic divides them into three groups,  Predicates (including ActivationConditions), Functions and other beans.

Predicates

All Predicates beans are implementation of the Predicate interface, that is to say they are given a "thing" and return true or false.

Logic

• shibboleth.Conditions.FALSE - always return FALSE for any input
• shibboleth.Conditions.TRUE - always return TRUE for any input
• shibboleth.Conditions.AND - the result is the logical conjunction of two (similarly typed) Predicates
• shibboleth.Conditions.OR  - the result is the logical disjunction of two (similarly typed) Predicates
• shibboleth.Conditions.NOT - the result is the logical negation of the provided predicate

Activation

The most important use of Predicates is in ActivationConditions, and the majority of the predefined beans are of this type.   They implement  Predicate<ProfileRequestContext>, and will be called with the current Request context (when provided as a activation condition.

• shibboleth.Conditions.BrowserProfile
• shibboleth.Conditions.RelyingPartyId
• shibboleth.Conditions.Scripted
• shibboleth.Conditions.Predicate
• shibboleth.Conditions.EntityDescriptor
• shibboleth.Conditions.SubjectName
• shibboleth.Conditions.AllowedSAMLPresenters
• shibboleth.Conditions.IssuingDelegatedAssertion


Other useful Predicate classes

These are not named beans, but the classes can be useful

• net.shibboleth.idp.profile.logic.SimpleAttributePredicate
• org.opensaml.profile.logic.IPRangePredicate
• net.shibboleth.utilities.java.support.logic.StrategyIndirectedPredicate
