Package net.geant.edugain.attributes Description

This package containes the eduGAIN attribute converter and filtering classes. Attribute conversion is done in home and remote bridging elements. This conversion is fully configurable via XML files placed in eduGAIN bridging elements configuration directory. Conversion includes basic attribute transformations (creating new attributes, transforming attribute values with the use of regular expressions) and complex attribute transformations like merging and splitting attribute values. Filtering is responsible for allowing (or denying) specific attributes and values. By default no attribute is allowed to pass through the filter.
